Sumo Walk Squats

This move is sure to inspire fabulous glutes, quads, and hams.  It’s easy to do throughout the day holding a baby in your arms and it will bring your preschooler a giggle. (I assure you… right before they try it for themselves).

1) Place feet wider than hip distance apart.

2) Bending at the knee, lower your rump down and back as if trying to sit in a chair just out of reach.

3) Hold positions when you reach 90 degrees at the knee

4) Place hands on thighs (ala a sumo wrestler)

5) Lift your right foot, maintaining the squat (stay down, don’t stand and straighten your legs), and walk a “large” step forward.  Repeat on left side.

6) Walk forward for 6 steps (3 on each side), then go in reverse for 6. Do this 2 times to equal one set.  Do 3 sets minimum.
