Want Legs Like A Dancer?


Want lean and toned legs like a dancer? Try the PLIE SQUAT!

These squats work your inner thigh as well as your gluteus minimus (side of the butt)


HOW TO:
  • Stand with legs wider than shoulder width with your toes turned out slightly. 
  • With your back straight, bend your knees to lower yourself until thighs are parallel with the floor (or as low as your flexibility will allow) while keeping your heels on the floor. 
  • Pause then slowly raise to your starting position. 

**Want to Take it Up a Notch?  Add weights to your hands.  You can hold them by your side the whole exercise or curl them as you raise back to the starting position.
