A 30-minute bodyweight HIIT for glutes and legs, built around lunges, squats and mountain climbers to boost running power and speed.
Trainer Mercedes Owens leads an intense bodyweight HIIT with lunges, squats, mountain climbers and single-leg circuits, plus plank walkouts that bring in the arms with optional push-ups. Short recovery breaks keep it moving, and her team shows modifications so you can follow the version that suits you. The video runs about 29 minutes.

Who Is It For?
Runners and anyone who wants stronger, faster legs and glutes through a challenging bodyweight session at home.
Who Is It Not For?
Not ideal if you want a gentle session or have sore knees, since the lunges and single-leg circuits are demanding.
Key Benefits
Builds glute and leg strength and power that carries over to running, while the intervals raise your heart rate.
Things to Keep in Mind
Take it slow when you need to, use the modifications, and watch your knees and balance on lunges and single-leg work.
