Hi! My name is Connie Hale. Thanks for joining me here at expertvillage.com. Today we’re slowly working into some beginner aerobic dance and aerobic workout. Please discuss any exercise routine that you want to take on with your doctor first. We’re going to go ahead and do back into our squat’s position. Feet are shoulder width apart. Again, while you’re squatting, make sure heels have all the way to your body, glutes are sticking straight out to get your proper form. We’re going to do a simple 3 squat. 1, 2, 3, and we’re lifting our leg up, up. What you want to be using is the muscles right along the side of your hip, outer thigh; we’re lifting. I like to call this dog at a fire hydrant, because that’s the best way to explain it. Alright, here we go. Here we go. Down, 1, 2, 3, and we lift. When you’re lifting, I also want you to concentrate on squeezing all the muscles on the side of the body. Let’s do opposite leg. 1, 2, 3, and lift. Let’s face that to the side. 1, 2, 3, and lift. Again, it’s squeeze along the side. Anytime you’re doing a squat, it’s a wonderful, wonderful workout because it’s using the largest muscle group in your body. The more muscle you put on your body, the more fat you’re going to burn. I don’t know about you, but I would like to burn as many calories as I can by just sitting down and doing nothing. The more muscle you build and tone on your body, the more you’re going to be burning calories. Again, we go down, 1, 2, 3, and we lift up. Thanks for joining me.
