This is a 20 minute lower body workout for the hips, legs & booty that is easy on the knees. Focus on the quality of movement rather than the amount of reps you are doing as you follow along. There is one section with squats during this workout. If you have issues with your knees, see below:
When done properly, a squat should not hurt the knees. It’s important to do squats to restore and maintain proper function of the knee joint. Of course if you feel pain, have recently been injured or have been advised against squatting by your health professional then skip that section of the video. If you are performing the squats make sure to:
➤Stand with our feet shoulder distance apart, heels stacked beneath the shoulders
➤Turn your toes out slightly (less than 45 degrees)
➤Keep your feet flat on the floor
➤Press your hips back as you lower
➤Knees follow the line of your toes, avoid the knees turning in, or out beyond your feet
➤Do not overarch the back
➤Keep the chest lifted
➤Engage your core
➤Drive through the heels to press back, with the feeling of pressing the feet and knees outward (without actually changing their alignment)
