Bum Bum Bum Buuuuuuuuuuum....

Let's change it up a bit and work on our bums!

Standing in front of a chair (in case you need help with balance) with your feet about shoulder width apart, bend your knees slightly (so you look like a downhill skier!) Try to keep abs engaged and back straight, knees don't go past toes. Now, put your weight on your left leg, point your right toe out to the side and bring your right foot so that the instep is behind your left heel, foot hovering above the ground about an inch, (right knee is bent out to the side). Flex your right glute to lift the leg up and back. Don't arch your back but bring your leg far enough to feel the bum really tighten. Lower down to left heel, without touching ground. Repeat for one full minute. (The less you use the chair for balance, the more you work your left leg as well.)

Switch sides.

Repeat 3-5 times.

Make it count!
