]]>While standard lunges are a highly effective leg workout, lateral lunges place an added focus on conditioning your lateral stabilizers as you move sideways. Stand with your feet together and shift to the side with your right leg until your right thigh is parallel to the floor. Ensure that your left leg remains straight and both feet point forward. Push back to your starting position and do the same on the left side.
Start by standing with your hands at your sides. Jump while opening your legs slightly wider than hip distance and bring your hands up overhead. Jump again and return to your original position. That’s one rep.
This intense exercise will provide you with a tough cardio workout. Stand with your feet under your hips and step back with your right foot, bending both knees until your back knee lowers to the floor directly below your hip. Return to your starting position and switch sides.

]]>There are many ways to do a squat with the resistant band. You can either put a small band around your thighs and push your knees out against the band when you go down. Or, you can use a large band and put it under your feet and on your shoulders or hold it on your arms in front of your body. You will be squatting against the resistance of the band in each scenario.
This exercise is great for strengthening your hips and gluteus medius and adding a band makes the workout more intense and effective. Lie on your side, balancing on your elbow and forearm. Put the band on both legs above the knees, bend the knees so the feet are in line with your glutes. Keeping the waist lifted, core engaged and feet together just open and close the knees. Do 12-15 reps on each side and enjoy the burn!
Take one side of a long band and put it under one of your feet and then take the other side in one of your hands, behind your back. Keep the hand and elbow close to your head and extend the arm up to the ceiling, return slowly back down to start position. Do 12 reps on each side. You’re sure to feel some burning in your arms!
