    • 1). Stand up straight with the heels together and the feet turned out as much as you comfortably can. Tighten the abdominal, buttocks and inner thigh muscles.

    • 2). Point your right foot and slide the foot out to the side keeping the leg turned out. Squeeze your inner thigh muscles and press your right heel to the floor landing with the feet a bit wider than hip width apart.

    • 3). Bend both knees and lower into a squat. Reach your buttocks back as if you were about to sit in a chair. Make sure you keep equal weight in both legs. The common mistake is to land in a lunge with more weight in one leg.

    • 4). As you stand up, shift your weight into your right leg and point the left foot. Squeeze the inner thigh muscles and slide the left toes along the floor and bring the legs back together. The heels should be touching with the feet turned out.

    • 5). Repeat traveling to the left. Do 8 to 12 repetitions going right to left.
