Shaping up...
Before you head for your hot tub, put your body through these Jazzercise movements for toning and strengthening the inside thighs. ABOVE: Lie on your left side with your weight supported by the hip, elbow and forearm. Keep the torso facing forward with the shoulders and hips basically square-to-the-front. Extend your left leg directly to the side with the knee facing forward. Bend the right leg to crossover in front of the left leg; place the foot on the floor with good alignment with the knee. Relax the right arm, hand on or near the right knee. BELOW: Lift the left leg slightly upward off the floor. Be sure that the movement is initiated from the inside
thigh muscle. Keep your torso as still as possible on the left to keep the workload within the appropriate muscles. It is not necessary to lift the leg high; concentrate on the control of the vertical placement upward and then downward again to the original position. Be careful not to allow the hips to shift backward, this may put unnecessary stress on the lower back area and will transfer the work to the quadrlcep. Do the movements about 16 times and then reverse the sequence for the right leg. Repeat the exercise as desired. Suggested Music: “Montego Bay” by Amazulu. —Judi Sheppard Mlssett’s Jazzercise
