WALKING WORKOUT (PART TWO)


SUMO SQUAT AND LIFT
This one targets you quads, inner and outer thighs, butt, hips, back, shoulders and biceps!
Now I know this one will be hard to do in public...but think Phoebe on Friends... running! And the payoff of how you will look and feel!

  • While walking, turn so that your right side is facing "forward" (up hill), fists near hips
  • Lift right foot, flexed, to take a large side step to right.
  • Lower into a wide squat as you lift both hands up in a wide V.
  • Rising upon right leg, lower arms as you lift leg to side foot flexed.
  • Step left foot next to right.
  • Add it to yesterdays exercise, do 12 reps, repeat with left side facing front!

Check back tomorrow for PART THREE to Walking Workout: A Firmer Butt! And remember if this causes ANY PAIN, STOP and check with your doctor or physical therapist. Call us and set up an appointment for us to help you with your own personalized walking plan.
