Workout Wednesday: Exercises for Fit Hips

To work your body and get maximum benefit you want to think about your hips. The muscles in your hips help you move laterally, and work on keeping you balanced and strong. So let's work those hip muscles and get your body fit!

First we are going to do a Band Side Lunge. Hold the band to the side and lunge in the opposite direction for about 10 reps. Do 2 sets.

Next we will do Side Squats. Criss-cross a band across your knees. Take a step laterally (to the side) into a squat then bring your feet together back to a standing position traveling across the room. Repeat traveling to the opposite direction.

The last exercise is Clam Shells. Lie on your side with knees bent. Open and close your knees, adding tension by pressing knees together with your hands. Slow and controlled, do 2 sets of 10.
