Short shorts-approved moves for toned legs

Ready for your legs to take center stage? With these moves, you’re just weeks away from rocking those short-shorts, sistah! Try these six to tone up fast...
 

Best butt buster

Relax into a squat position with your left knee on the floor. Then, raise your left leg straight up and stretch your arms forward. Lower it back down to a squat position and repeat on the right leg. Do twenty times before moving on. Feel the burn girls!

Inner thigh dips

Stand with your feet a little further than shoulder width apart and your toes pointing slightly away from each other. Slowly bend your knees for fives seconds and then gradually raise them back up. Repeat 15-20 times.

Outer thigh planks

Lie on your right side with your elbow and forearm holding you up. Stack your feet on top of each other and keep your neck raised. Lift your hips so that your body forms a straight line. Once you are in sideways plank position, raise your left leg as high as possible and slowly lower it back down. Repeat ten times and then switch sides.

Knee bends

Stand tall with your arms by your side. Touch your knees together, bend them a little, and move them around in a circular motion 10 times.

Balancing your calves

Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your toes and knees facing forward. Lift your heels and keep your body as straight as possible. Slowly lower your body back to the ground. Repeat 10-15 times for the ultimate calf workout!

Opposite lunges

Put your feet hip width apart and your hands by your side. Step your right foot out and lunge down into a comfortable position. Lift up and return your right foot to its original spot. Do the same thing with your left foot and repeat 15-20 times.
