I haven’t done any of these in a while. Got a chance to shoot two vids today. A while back I did an article on squats and their importance for women. Many women shy away from squats for fear that they’ll get too bulky. However, squats are a woman’s best friend if she is trying to tone and firm up her lower body. In the first video Susan demonstrates the power squat. Notice her form and the pace at which she works out at. Remember if you want to get toned, low weights, high rep and slow pace.

Thanks to James for shooting this next video. I’ve known about hanging leg raisers for the past two years. However, I never felt I had the athletic ability to get them done. I tried them out for the first time today. If you’re looking for a lower abdominal workout this is what you need to do. My abs felt so tight after doing them, now  if only they were actually as tight as they felt.  You can do oblique twists off of this workout, but I don’t think I have the stamina to do it yet. The key is to not use momentum and to come to a complete stop after each rep.
