This is a really good one for the glutes and legs. Its a single leg squat. You can use a TRX or towel or rope or shirt or some kind of material. I keep my resting leg bent but you can make it a bit harder and straighten your resting leg or add more weight. Very important to keep your hips aligned with this type of movement, meaning you should not tilt your hips left or right. The hips need to be level with the ground. For my own training I do these types of leg exercises first, as part of a session and I do them between working on my arms and chest and back because it engages the big muscles and releases more hormones. I like to do a few core exercises between working on my upper body as well, just to engage the core, so that your spine aligns better during the other exercises. But you would typically do the core last as part of a workout. A usual session would recommend would involve; 1. Quick stretch. 2. Medium intensity run for about 10 minutes. 3. Legs and glute exercises. 4. Arms, chest and back exercises. 5. Core exercises. 6. Stretch to cool down. High intensity interval training is very good for people at an advanced level, so 100m + sprints or alike are great to do but not all the time... you do need to be a healthy and fit person to do those kinds of things.
