Secret Tips for Leg Toning Exercise One

We all want our legs to look like this!                                                                         Not like this!

These exercises are meant for those who do not have any time to exercise, or the money to pay for the gym.  It is important for our mental and physical health to take care of ourselves the best that we can.  These exercises will help you to prepare for that summer swimsuit exposure!

Exercise One

While sitting, watching TV, or at your desk you can do this one! (For the image below, just imagine you are at a desk or sitting in a chair!)



1)            Sit up straight, shoulders back, neck high, and face forward.
2)            Tighten up your buttocks (this will also help your touche’!)
3)            Lift up both legs under your desk, point your toes and hold for 10 seconds.
4)            Lower your legs slowly, and repeat except for this time, flex your feet in the attempt to point your toes towards you.  Hold for 10 seconds again.
5)             Repeat as often as you like and do this several times a day!

Remember to keep your buttocks tight!  Try not to relax your legs on the chair of sofa.  I call this cheating!
