Eight-Minute Bodyweight Circuit to Rebuild Thigh Strength After 55

A trainer-endorsed, eight-minute routine uses only bodyweight to restore thigh strength and knee/hip stability for adults 55+, replacing the leg press with moves like box squats, bodyweight hip hinges, reverse lunges with a knee drive, a split-squat isometric hold, and squat pulses. Each move is performed for 60 seconds (or 10–15 reps per side) and repeated for two rounds to build balance, stability, and practical, real-life leg strength.
