Targets legs and butt
Stand with feet two to three feet apart and toes turned out, holding a dumbbell in each hand (use 3- to 10-pound weights). Let your arms hang down in front of your hips, palms facing in.
Lower into a plié squat by bending knees out to the side until thighs create a 45-degree angle to the floor.
Shift your weight to your left leg and raise right leg out to the side with toes pointed as you stand back up. return to starting position and repeat with left leg.
Do 10 reps on each side.
Too easy? Squat until thighs are parallel to the floor.
