Peg Legs

Good afternoon and a very, happy Monday to you all!

Legs today, yay!

Standing in front of chair about a legs length away, your back towards the seat of the chair, put the top of your left foot on the chair, knee slightly bent. Bring your weight to your right leg and bend your right knee until it is at a 90 degree angle. Make sure your right knee does not go beyond your toes. Hold in the lunge for a slow count of 10. Come up for a few seconds and then repeat. 5-10 times then switch sides. (Try not to use too much of your left foot...a little is okay of course.)

Now, go to the other side of the chair. Put your hands on the back of the chair and move your body back so that you make an L with your body, your arms and back are straight and you are looking down at the floor. (Your abs are engaged and keeping your back from arching.) Put your weight on your left leg and lift your right leg about an inch off the ground. Keeping your hips level, slowly extend your right leg until it it parallel with your back. Slowly release back down (DO NOT PUT IT ON THE GROUND THOUGH!) and then extend back again. Do this 20 times, tightening your bum on the way up and releasing on the way down remembering to keep your back and arms and neck all in a line. Switch legs and do 20 times on that side too.

Yay! That's it! You are done.
