O'kay in this clip we are going to be doing some leg circles. These are going to help
strengthen the hips and keep the thighs nice and toned so what we are going to do is hold
on to a base and hold on to a flat surface here a chair or a bench. You want to stand
up nice and straight, body nice and long like you are pulling a string from the top of your
head. Body in an upright position and what you are going to do is extend from the side
extending the hip. O'kay you are just going to lift nice and slow and then bring it down
nice and slow. What you are going to be doing is you are going to be bringing your arm all
the way up to the side and inhale on the release. This is going to help increase your balance
because you are having to put all your weight on one foot. It is also going to help increase
the strength in your thighs and hips. You are going to go nice and slow and pace yourself.
Just go at the pace that you feel comfortable with. Exhaling out and inhaling on the way
down. Go ahead and lift from the side and bring it back down. Maintain keeping your
body in an upright position. Exhale out and inhale in. I would try to keep the leg that
you are using for the stabilizer here, just a slight bend in the knee so you don't lock
out your joints.
