If you've loved the fun partner workouts celebrity fitness trainer Beth Alexander [3] does with Jeanette Jenkins [4] like this HIIT bodyweight workout [5], you'll be psyched to try this mini-band workout Alexander recently shared on Instagram. It's perfect for home, outside, or while travelling because all you need is this one little piece of equipment [6].
This is a total-body workout, but most of the moves target your legs and bum, so expect to walk funny tomorrow! Alexander said to use a band that you can stretch through your entire range of motion and that still feels like a challenge. She added that the goal is to use the band to help you find and feel the burn in your glutes, but your abs and arms will feel it, too!
