This 27-minute killer leg workout was designed to help you sculpt long, lean and toned thighs and target your quads. The focus is on the muscles located at the front of the thighs, but this workout also engages your posterior chain muscles, the hamstrings, and the glutes, and helps tone your inner and outer thighs as well as your booty!
