Tipsy Chair
Place a block in between your thighs and squeeze tightly. Raise your arms toward the sky while engaging the core and sit down as if you were sitting on a very low bench. Then, lift the right foot off the ground a couple of inches without leaning towards the left. Hold for 10 breaths. Switch sides.
Perfect your form: Don’t let your hip pop off out the side, remain stable on the standing leg.
Dial it Down: Keep your arms down by your sides.
Amp it Up: Hold for one minute on each side. Hold 3-5 lb weights in each hand. Close your eyes.
Targets: Thighs, back, shoulders
