It's no secret that exercising regularly has innumerable benefits. Stress can be tackled effectively during a strenuous workout session. When it comes to exercising it is always best to workout in a staggered manner wherein you focus on one body part on a day for better results. Now, we have fitness trainer Yasmin Karachiwala who has shared a list of exercises for a leg day on Instagram. Yasmin posted the videos along with the caption wherein she wrote, "My secret for your 5-minute leg burn. No gym? No time? No problem. I know how frustrating it can be when you only have a short period of time to workout."
