Leg day in 40 minutes: single-leg squats and lunges with heavy dumbbells and pulses, then a sprint finisher.

Day 34 of the HR12WEEK 5.0 plan alternates full-range single-leg exercises with small pulsing movements to fire up the quads and calves. Two circuits of 40 seconds on and 20 off, three rounds each, build time under tension, and a sprint finisher with ghost rope, wall sits and jump squats trains endurance. The video runs about 39 minutes.

Equipment setup

🏋️ Dumbbells

Who Is It For?

Experienced exercisers with heavy dumbbells who want a demanding single-leg leg day with an endurance finish.

Who Is It Not For?

Not ideal for beginners, sensitive knees or low-impact needs, since it has lunges, wall sits and jump squats.

Key Benefits

Builds quad and calf strength and single-leg control through time under tension, with a short sprint for endurance.

Things to Keep in Mind

Pick a weight you can control on one leg, keep your front knee tracking over your toes, and skip the jump squats if your knees complain.
