A Plyometric Move to Burn the Butter!!


The exercise I’m about to discuss targets your inner thighs, glutes, arms and requires good hand eye coordination.  The only piece of equipment required is a medicine ball.  Beginners, I suggest you use a 4lb medi-ball. 
Begin with your feet spread a little more than shoulder width apart.  Point your toes out so that your knees are aligned with your toes. 
You will hold the medicine ball in both hands near your chest. 
Squat down until your thighs are parallel to the ground and keep your weight on your heels during this entire move. 
Return to the standing position by pushing off with your heels and squeezing your glutes and thighs.  As you go back to the original stance, you’re going to lift your arms and the ball upwards (with your body) and toss the ball in the air. 
Catch the ball and use that momentum to return to the squat position.  Up and down you will go. 
Have fun!
