THE 'BLT' WORKOUT: Booty, Legs & Thighs Part 2

It's Week 2 of the #FemmeFitt #BLT Workouts! As promised here's another video for your Booty, Legs & Thighs! This week we are focusing on all things SQUATS! 🍑 4 different types of squat moves that are sure to work your bum and legs if done properly!

So let's talk about how to properly do a squat:

 
1) Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder- width apart.
2) Point your toes slightly outward, not directly in front of you. 
3) Sit BACK on your heels as if you were sitting in a chair. 
4) All of your weight should be in your HEELS, NOT in your TOES! 
5) 📌MOST IMPORTANTLY: Make sure your knees do not go past your toes while in the squat. This can damage your knees and it won't workout that bum! Your knee should always be in line with your ankle.
6) Lastly, I always like to squeeze my glutes and engage my core when I stand from a squat for an added workout!
📌 Check your technique in a mirror and adjust yourself accordingly. It's the best way to make sure you are doing the move properly and getting the most out of your workouts. It's more important to get the technique right than just getting the reps in!

Here are the moves and check out the video below for a visual!
🍑 Squats - 10 Reps
🍑 Squat w/ Side Kick - 10 Reps Each Side

So let's try to do this 3-4 times this week!
