Thread: Good workouts for lower body without weights?

An exercise for all over toning would be to do some squats w/the dumbells tucked under your butt...or squat and bring your arms straight in front of your body to counterbalance...you should be able to squat pretty deep this way. (I like doing these with a stability ball against a wall) BILLIE

I particularly want to tone my quad regions and my lower legs.

So you have bars but no weights is that right ?
How heavy are those dumbells?

Wall sits work pretty well (sit with your back straight against a wall, knees bent at 90 degrees). Also you can do step ups, find a box or something and hold the dumbells stepping up and on and off the box. Bench jumps....bend down low and "explode" off the ground as high as you can onto a bench or box.
