I need a little bit of help with this one. All I currently have access to are dumbbells and I would like to start working on my legs. What exercises can I do with what I have and what parts of the legs do the exercises work?

Congrats on the weight loss.Originally Posted by dajoker24
First, you can do 1 legged squats with NO weights, then with 1 DB. Balance with your free hand. You probably won't need weights initially. Works whole thigh/hip area.
DB leg curls (may need partner)-put DB between feet-works hamstrings.
DB hack squat-lower thigh
Lunges with DBs-thighs/butt/hams
1 leg DB calve raise (on stairs)-calves
Sissy squats (no weights to start) lower/upper thighs

Are there any sites that you would reccommend that shows some pics of the exercises so that I know I'm doing them right and not hurting myself instead of helping myself?

Just did some dumbbell lunges and some of those iron crosses and man I'm feeling it. Those two will definitly stay in my routine.
