Home workouts!! Hi Loves!!! I hope you are healthy and in good spirits during this time of social distancing with the current COVID-19 situation!!! Sending you a BIG virtual hug and all my love!!! I am here for you!!! I believe we are going to get through this together!!! It’s so important that during this time at home we still prioritize our physical health and I have some easy workouts that we can do together!! No need to worry about having gym equipment…use what’s in your house for simple home workouts!! Make this a family activity or even FaceTime a friend you can do this workout with!!! So turn on your favorite workout playlist and LET’S GO!!!!!

Make sure you watch this video for an easy how-to!!!

Squats (weight optional)
This can be done equipment free, with weights, and even a resistance band!! If you do use weights, make sure you can at least do 10 reps! You’ll hold your weight in both hands at chest level. If you aren’t using weights, your hands should still be at chest level. Stand with your feet hip-width to shoulder-width apart. Stand tall and tense your core, then drop your butt back and down as you keep your chest up, sitting back onto your heels without shifting your weight forward onto the balls of your feet. Just imagine you’re sitting on an imaginary chair. A proper squat strengthens your legs and glutes!! We’ll do squats in-position and travelling squats…which is just stepping to the side for one exercise and doing a pivot position for the other! This will improve your lower body mobility!!

Hip Extensions
Now they’re few ways you can do this. You can do it standing up or on all fours, so find a position that is doable for you. If standing up and you have a resistance band make sure you loop the band around your ankles, but this can be done without the resistance band as well. With feet firmly planted and your hands at chest level, extend one leg back as far as you can while still standing straight and return leg to the starting position. Do 10 of these and switch to the other leg! If on all fours, ensure that your knees are hip-width apart and your hands are under your shoulders. Tigthen your core, and lift one leg directy back and up and the same time, a full extension in the air as far as you can and returning your leg back to the starting position. Make sure your pelvis and hip stay parallel to the ground. A Scorpion Hip Extension is adding an additional leg movement, instead of bringing your knee back to it’s original starting position, you’ll bring it behind and over your other bended knee. Then you’ll extend back out and now you’ll bring your knee to it’s starting position!! This exercise helps open your hips while also working out your glutes!!
