Plié Squat

So, similar to a regular squat, except we’re going to be little ballerinas here. So you’re going to turn your toes out to the side in a plie position. And same thing, your feet are a little bit wider than shoulder-width apart. You’re going to squat all the way down.

Again, really focusing on pushing the hips back as much as you can. This is a little bit of a harder position to push the hips back in, since your toes are out. But you still want to really focus on pushing the hips back. That’s what really gets deep into your glutes and your butt area.

So you take it all the way down, and then pressing up. So again, focus, always digging through the heels as you press up, squeezing your butt. So you’re going to feel this more in almost like your inner part of your butt, as supposed to the outer.

So you’re going to come straight down, dig through those heels as you come up, just like that. Again, your posture, shoulders back, chest up, abs tight. You sit straight down in the squat, then dig through those heels to bring it up. Show you this way. Feet are a little wider than shoulder width apart, toes pointed outward. You’re going to come straight down, and then up. Squeezing almost up and under with you butt.

So again, you can do 10 to 12 reps of these in your exercise routine. You can also add weights if, you know, feeling spicy. You can stick them on your shoulders, same way squatting down and up. Or you can even do plie squat jump to add a little more heart pumping calorie burn.
