Looking at your thighs and butt in horror these days? With our sit down lifestyles - driving in the car, sitting at a desk, sitting at computers, etc. - it's no wonder our bodies are showing signs of disuse and atrophy! Non-functional flat and saggy glutes, tight psoas and hip flexor muscles, flabby thighs, poor core strength, and poor posture all contribute to the lower body figure issues women find most problematic. This routine, performed 2-3 days per week, should have you looking good in short skirts with a booty you are proud of in no time. Follow these instructions for maximum benefit from this routine. #1 When weights are used, select a weight which is challenging, but with which you can maintain proper form and complete the requisite number of sets and reps. This is very important. If the weight is too light you're wasting time; if it's too heavy to handle properly, you'll use the wrong muscles and risk possible injury. #2 Perform two days of just cardio for 45-60 minutes. #3 If you are a beginner, start with just one set of each exercise the first week or two, and work your way up to two then three sets. #4 Be sure to round out this hard core lower body routine with upper body exercises which target your back, chest, shoulders, biceps/triceps and abs as well for overall symmetry. #5 If you have problems with your hips, back, knees, feet or ankles, be sure to check with your physiotherapist and/or doctor to make sure these movements are not contraindicated. #6 Take care to stretch your muscles well after completing your routine to try stave off soreness. You'll feel muscles you didn't know you even had working, so you'll feel some regardless, but stretching really does help!
