Granted I’m not loving the workouts when my legs start to fatigue and the burn sets in when I’m only five minutes into the workout, but there’s something about the feeling I get after a tough leg workout that keeps me coming back for more. I LOVE it… Well, I suppose it’s more of one of those love to hate type things. But you know what I mean. It hurts so good that you kind of love it, ya know?
But back to Burn Boot Camp leg workouts… I have one to share with you today!
The “meat” of our BBC leg workout yesterday included the a 15-minute mini circuit you see above. Do not be fooled by the relatively short workout time. It’s TOUGH. And if you don’t think it’s tough, try grabbing heavier weights (that still allow you to maintain proper form and stay safe) and challenging yourself to concentrate on flexing your muscles and digging a little deeper. That usually does the trick!
This workout comes to you from Beth, one of my favorite BBC trainers. Her workouts are always killer and you can follow her for more fitness inspiration on Instagram at @BethWilliamsFitness.

Sam @ Barrister's Beet says
Love those! Can’t wait to try. Love that it’s 15 minutes but is a great bang for your buck. Thanks for sharing! Hope your legs feel better : )
Amber @ Busy, Bold, Blessed says
I love working out my legs!
Tara says
Whew – jump squats and lunges combined ?!!! You go girl!!
If that is the core of the workout, what do you do for the remainder of the boot camp? I would assume your legs would be spent!
Marina @ A Dancer's Live-It says
I hate working out my legs too because every day is leg day for a dancer!! When I have to do extra leg work it’s like ughhhhh. Haha thanks for sharing this quick and dirty workout Julie! <3
Linz @ Itz Linz says
this looks great! leg workouts are my favorite! thanks for sharing!
Kaci @ Kaci K. RD2Be says
My legs are my least favorite to workout too because I’m so sore for days afterwards. I know I need to work on strengthening my legs to help with running but it’s hard to make myself do it. Pinning this workout to try later!
Chelsea@RunningWithaWhisk says
Such a fun circuit! I used to hate leg day, but now that I do it more often, I am starting to really enjoy it. I have to really get my mind in the right place or else all I can think about it how much it hurts, HA!
Julie says
I feel that way about jumping lunges. I still basically hate them but I hate them LESS now that I’m doing them more often. So weird how that works!
Kelli @ Hungry Hobby says
My favorite (and least favorite) type of workout!
Katie S. says
Cannot wait to try this out today!
Sky says
Maybe I’m sick but I love leg day! This looks like a great way to get in a quick but effective leg workout. I can’t wait to give it a try!
Julie says
You are SICK! 😉 I wish I loved leg day!
Lauren @ The Bikini Experiment says
This is a great workout for the legs. Thank you for sharing.
Patricia @Sweet And Strong says
I dread leg day too, but love how I feel after. Definitely a love hate relationship!
Polly says
Thanks for sharing these exercises! I really need to improve my leg workouts since I tend to focus more on my upper body.
Heather @ Polyglot Jot says
ugh i hate leg workouts too!
Sheena @ Paws and Pavement says
I love working my legs (I’m a runner) but my weakness is definitely my arms. I love Body Pump so that I work everything and then done!
brittney @ corral b says
hi julie! just curious: do you have to get permission to share bbc workouts on your blog? i have so many routines from barre classes that i want to share, but feel bad because i feel like i’m taking credit for somebody else’s work! how do you go about this?
Courtney says
Yes, I was just about to ask this. Even if you do have her permission, you haven’t included her information on your infographic…
Julie says
I do have permission from the owner and I included “Burn Boot Camp” in the infographic. 🙂
Julie says
Yes!! I have permission to share from the owner and she often even re-tweets the workouts I share from BBC!
Julie says
As far as getting permission, I would definitely ask the studio! It seems like people are often happy for bloggers to share as long as they’re given credit since it also helps spread the word about their class/studio/workout!
brittney @ corral b says
awesome! thank you so much. i guess i was a little timid about asking the instructor, but i’ll definitely do that next time i love my class 🙂
Aleeha says
Ooh, thanks I’m going to save this! I’m always on the hunt for new workouts, I really want to get into fitness so it’s good inspiration!
