Workouts
High Stepping
Side Hop
Squats
Butt Bridge
Fire Hydrants
Planks
The move: High Stepping
This exercise has all the benefits of the high-intensity cardio workouts without putting stress on your joints. It improves your overall fitness by building strength, reducing fat, and boosting your cardiovascular health.
How to:
Start standing with feet hip-distance apart. Lift right knees as high as it will go and raise the opposite arm, then switch quickly so left knees is up before right foot lands. Continue pulling knees up quickly for as long as desired.
The move: Side Hop
This exercise primarily targets the quads and to a lesser degree also targets the calves, glutes, and outer thighs.
How to:
Start in a standing position with your feet at a hip-width and your hands on your hips. Do make sure you have enough space to jump out to each side of where you are standing. Crouch down by bending your knees and hips, then jump sideways approximately a yard.
The move: Squats
This exercise strengthens your core and crushes calories. It strengthens the muscle of your lower body while boosting athletic ability and strength.
How to:
Stand facing forward with your chest up. Place your feet shoulder-width apart or simply wider. Extend your hands straight out in front of you to help keep your balance. Bend at your knees and hip, sticking your butt out like your sitting into an imaginary chair.
The move: Butt Bridge
This exercise works the lower back, abs and glutes. It does not put pressure on the lower back, this is a great exercise for people who are unable to do squats due to back, hip or knee pain.
How to:
Lie on your back with your feet flat against the floor and knees bent. Squeeze your glutes and lift your hip off on the floor until your body forms a straight line from your knees to your shoulders. Pause at the top, then lower back down on the starting position.
The move: Fire Hydrants
This exercise strengthens and tones your glutes and core. It also improves the way your hip move. It also helps reduce back pain, help your posture, and make everyday movement more comfortable.
How to:
Start in a quadruped position with your wrist stacked directly under your shoulders and hips over your knees. Keep your belly button drawn in towards your spine, back flat, and your leg bent at 90 degrees. Lift your leg out to your right side stopping at a hip height.
The move: Plank
This exercise strengthens your spine, and your abdominal muscle, which naturally results in a strong posture as they grow in strength.
How to:
Begin in the plank position, face down with your forearms and toe on the floor. Your elbows are directly under your shoulder and your forearms are facing forward. Your hearing is relaxed and you should be looking at the floor.
