The Workout

EXERCISE, SETSxTIME, REST PERIODS

Jump Squat, 8x20 seconds, 10 sec. (standard Tabata protocol)

Squat, 8x20 seconds, 10 sec.

Walking Lunge, 8x20 seconds, 10 sec.

The Explanation

Don't have time for a 60- or 90-minute workout today? No worries. Just find 15 minutes.

This is actually the second Tabata-style 15-minute leg workout I've designed for JimStoppani.com. (Here's the first: 15-Minute Leg Workout.) The difference with this one is that it's not only doable in the same time allotment, but it can also be done at home. I figure if you don't have time for a full-length workout, you may not have time for a gym commute, either. This routine is also great for when you're traveling and don't have access to a gym, since it can be done with nothing more than your own body weight.

A body-weight-only leg workout? Doesn't sound very hardcore, but it's actually fairly brutal.
