If an extreme thigh burning session isn’t good for a Saturday morning, then I don’t know what is…lolz!
This workout consists of two exercises; Plie Squats & Side Kicks.
Its simple.
Do 1 plie squat, then one side kick to the right, do another plie squat and one side kick to the left.
Easy right?
mmmkay, moving on.
What You’ll Need
The Workout
Set your timer for 8 rounds; 10 seconds rest, 20 seconds maximum intensity.
Complete the following exercises:
1 Plie Squat & 1 side kick (right)
1 Plie Squat & 1 side kick (left)
Continue alternating sides for each kick after your plie squat. Do this throughout the entire 20 second period.
The Exercises Explained:
PLIE SQUAT: Standing in a wide stance with toes pointing outwards at an angle which is comfortable for you. Bend your knees and lower your body down into the squatting position, being sure not to bring your knees over your toes. Keep your back straight and your abdominal muscles contracted during the entire exercise. Push back to your starting position through your glutes, hamstrings and quadriceps. Make sure you squeeze your butt as your coming back up!
SIDE KICK: As soon as you come up from your plie squat lean to the left and kick your right leg out and as high as you can without sacrificing form. Try not to lean too far forwards, or too far down.
Now, complete another plie squat and then do a left side kick. Keep going until the 20 seconds are up.
Then lucky you get’s to rest for 10 seconds before busting out another 20 seconds.
Oh and btw, this continues for a solid 12 minutes.
So don’t forget to do three tabata rounds.
xx Enjoy
