How about some isometric workouts for the legs. You do not want to neglect the leg muscle development as it is as important as the rest of the body. There are a number of isometric exercises that you can utilize for the lower body. For a squat exercise you can place your back against a wall and slide down till your thighs are parallel to the floor. Make sure your knees are behind your toes. Hold this position for about 10 seconds, relax and repeat. Another variation of the squat is to go into the squat position just like you were really doing one with weight. Start at the lower position with thighs parallel to the floor, hold for about 10 seconds then raise up to the halfway point and hold another 10 seconds then raise up almost all the way and hold again. You could do that going up and back down. Do this for a few reps and you will feel the burn. Try the same exercise with your feet spaced from close together to far apart to target the muscles differently. The calves could also be exercised the same way. Raise up on your toes and hold for 10 seconds then lower yourself about halfway and hold again. While sitting, put one foot on top of the other and push the against each other then switch, you will target the front of the lower leg with this. Try hooking your toes under something immovable and lift your toes against it, this will also target the front of the lower leg.
