I do cardio. Do I really need to do good leg workouts at home?

Cardio is NOT a replacement for really good leg workouts at home. Working your legs in a strengthening manner is the absolute best thing you can do for your fitness - and for your metabolism!

In addition to boosting your metabolism, having great leg muscles also helps your legs appear leaner and more toned. And, to boot you will never again struggle with sets of stairs, long walks or hiking!
