The weekend is the perf time to up the ante on your workout. But who wants to spend all day huffin’ and puffin’? GL’s got four speedy exercises that’ll tone ya all over. Consider this your official weekend workout. Do it 2-3 times a week—just add cardio!
For great gams…
The Invisible Chair
Start off by standing with your feet together and arms straight out in front of you. Slowly squat down until your thighs are parallel to the floor. Keep your back and neck straight. Hold for 30 seconds and slowly come up. Take a 10 second break and repeat twice more.
For amazing arms…
The Crab Pose
Sit with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Place your hands on the floor, with your fingers facing your body. Slowly raise your butt until your entire upper body and your thighs are in a straight line. Hold for 30 seconds and then come back down slowly. Repeat twice.
For fab abs…
Upside-Down Steps
If you’re looking for a flatter tummy, lie down on your back and bring both legs in the air. Put your arms on the floor next to you. Slowly lower one leg, until it’s almost two inches above the floor. Taking your time, return to start position and repeat with your other legs. Repeat 15 times on each leg and do three sets total.
For a cute booty…
The Airplane
For this move, you’re gonna need something with some weight: textbook, medicine ball, etc. Stand up with your feet together, holding your weighted object up to your chest. In one motion, lift one leg back so it’s parallel to the floor. At the same time, lean your torso forward. Your body will make a “T” shape. Hold for 5 seconds and come back up. Repeat 15 times for each leg.
