3 Quickie Moves to Tighten Your Butt and Legs
Categories: Diet & Weight Loss, Fitness
If you're in search of sexy legs and a curvy can, squeeze these three moves into your workouts a few times each week. In fact, even if you aren't going to do a "full workout," just do these moves and your lower body will shine. I do these often myself and often incorporate them into the training sessions of my personal training clients. Each move works a variety of lower body muscles, and all of them will provide results quite quickly!
Squat Jumps: Squat down like a frog and explosively jump up as high as you can. This exercise will also crank up your heart rate, so begin with several sets of five jumps in a row with a short break in between. Increase your reps each workout.
Walking Lunges: Find a stretch of open space like a sidewalk or group fitness room. Alternating legs, take huge steps forward dropping your back knee close to the ground. Keep your back straight and avoid driving your front knee past your front ankle. Begin with 20 lunges and progress by adding steps or distance each time your train.
Single Leg Straight Leg Dead-lifts: Stand on one foot with your other leg extended straight behind you. Keeping a flat back and both legs almost straight, slowly lower both hands towards the floor. Do this 10 times on one leg, and then switch to the other. Progress by increasing repetitions or by holding on to weights.
