find two paper plates or two things that slide, place one under each foot, lay on your back on the ground with your hips up and pull your heels to your butt in and out, continue alternating.

find a bench or couch or chair, step up onto it and lift other knee at the top, focus on pushing only through the leg on the bench to stand up.

laying on your back on the ground, place one foot flat, other leg straight up to the ceiling, push through the foot on the ground lifting your hips up and down, keep repeating, focus on squeezing glutes and hamstring every time.

using a paper plate or something that slides, place one foot on the slider and other foot on the ground, start feet together, then slide the one foot out keeping your leg straight and bending the other leg into a lunge, and slide back to standing, keep repeating.

Beginning – (my grandma) holding two light weight DB’s or no weight, stand feet shoulder width, bend at the waist with back flat and knees a little bent, reach as far as you can towards your toes so it stretches your legs, then stand.

Intermediate – (my mom in the middle) holding two medium weights, stand shoulder width apart, bend at the waist and reach down towards toes with back flat, slight bend in your knees, so it stretches the back of your legs, then stand.

Advanced – (me) holding heavy DB’s, bend at the waist and reach all the way down to your toes with back flat so it stretches the back of your legs, keep legs as straight as you can, then stand.

Beginning/Intermediate (gram on the left/mom in middle) – using no weight, on all fours, kick one bent leg out to the side, squeeze glute at the top of every rep, don’t arch back.

Advanced (me on the right) – put a DB or you can use a band around knees for resistance.
