]]> The most important part of squats is getting the form right – the movement (much like any exercise) is designed to cater specifically to a set of muscles, and the only way to ensure that you’ll see results is if you make sure you’re working the right muscles. That comes from doing the movement right!

Pay very close attention to his explanation and execution, and then give it a shot yourself!

]]> work-out-nowNever mind the adorable girl showing off the exercise, but pay close attention to the instructions, here. I find that it took me a while to focus doing this exercise. You have to be careful that you’re not just swinging your legs back and forth, that you’re really working muscle groups with this one!

I started this one doing 10 of them back to back in three different sets. Give it a shot! Great for the booty, too!

]]> I don’t deny or hide my love for booty exercises. I mean, I like having a nice little bump, but I’m not trying to have the saggy crease line that we often see being offered up as “sexy.” Um, no thanks. That’s not a fit booty. I’ll pass! LOL

Building A Home Workout Routine: Hip Extensions is a post from: A Black Girl's Guide To Weight Loss. Thanks for reading!

]]> What I’m seeking to do is present you with a ton of different exercises that you can try in the comfort of your own home, maybe even your own bed!

I know that my biggest thing was getting over how silly I felt I might look trying to workout at home. As a friend said, “Some people need to go to a gym to feel as though they’ve accomplished anything.” I can’t necessarily say that this was how I felt, but I know that whatever it was was costing me my health in the process, and I needed to get it together!

The first of our exercises is something that will help with stretches as much as they will help with the booty area (yes, we will be giving the booty extra special attention!) as well as the upper thighs. Check out this hip extensions clip brought to us by the folks at expertvillage.com!
