5-10 reps each side
- Start facing a wall or countertop with hands resting on the surface for balance support.
- Take a big step out to one side. Bend the knee of the stepping foot as you sit your hips back as if trying to sit in a chair. Keep the opposite leg straight.
- Return to the starting position then repeat going to the other side.
10 reps
- From a regular glute bridge starting position, on your back, push your hips up in the air.
- Holding this position, walk your feet out further from your body in small steps, taking 3-4 total steps. Then, walk your feet back under your hips.
- Keep your hips off the ground throughout the entire exercise. Repeat for 10 reps.
10 reps each side
- Lay on side with lower arm supporting head, upper arm in front for balance and legs straight in line with body. Slightly bend upper leg knee and squeeze glutes (bottom) as you bring leg back behind body and hold for several seconds.
- Slowly raise the upper leg above hip level and return to start position.
- Keep your hips stacked on top of each other as you do this.
- Repeat on opposite side.
Modification: If you are having trouble balancing in this position, bend your bottom hip and knee up a little. If you find yourself rolling backwards, do this next to wall with the wall behind you to help keep your from rolling backwards.
10 reps each side
- Assume a position on all fours so that your knees are directly under your hips and hands are directly under your shoulders.
- Make sure your spine is in a neutral position. You do not want to have your back sagging or arching.
- Lift right arm until it parallel to the floor without any tilting at the shoulders- both shoulders should stay parallel to the floor.
- Gently lower arm back to your starting position and repeat with the other arm.
5. Plie Squat
10 reps
- Start with your feet about shoulder width apart. This should be sightly closer than your normal squat position.
- Bend your knees to squat down about half way. Your knees should move out wide, away from the body.
- As you reach the partial squat position, hold the ball in front of your belly.
- Plie by raising your body up and raising ball overhead and until your legs are straight.
10 reps each side
- Start in a standing position with your arms at your side.
- Lunge forward on your right leg with your left leg extending behind you and bring your left arm in front of you as you extend your right arm back.
- Press back with your right leg and switch sides with your left leg forward in a lunge with right leg behind and left arm in front.
- Try to maintain a fluid “sliding” motion as you switch legs from front to back.
- Avoid dipping too deep—just slightly bend your knees, and if you have walking poles you can use them to help with balance and add more arm work.
7. Soup Can Front to Lateral T Raise
10 reps
- Raise arms straight out in front, until shoulder height, and then lower back to your sides.
- Raise straight out to the sides of your body, making a T shape, untill your arms are even with your shoulders, and then lower to the sides of your body.
- Repeat these movements in an alternating pattern, 10 times each.
5-10 reps each side
- Lie flat on your back, and place your feet on top of the yoga ball. Your knees should be bent at a 90 degree angle, and the entire back of your thigh and leg should be in contact with the ball.
- *Your baby can participate too! Have your child resting in the crease of your hip, straddling your belly.
Your hands can be up to support your child in place, or you can have them simply at your sides - With your feet on the ball, roll your knees to one side, untill your thigh touches the grass. Use your core and hip flexor muscles to lift your legs back up to the starting position
- Repeat on the opposite side, completing 5-10 reps on each side in an alternating pattern.
