Hips Don’t Lie by @kmaecags! In honor #LegDay for many people, try these unconventional Knee Squats to strengthen Hip Flexors and Glutes. I was a skeptic too until I tried it and yes, they work! The stronger your Hip Flexors, the faster you can run and the more powerful you are in many exercises. Great for athletes! Strong Hip Flexors also help you perform more Leg Raises for nice V-shaped lower abs. ✳ HOW TO: (1) Start off with a lighter weight to practice form. Begin with both knees, feet and toes on the ground. DO NOT POINT YOUR TOES. (2) Start sitting on your legs then lift up with the barbell on your back, ensure full hip extension, then sit back down on your legs. Once you have the form, you can increase the weight to an appropriate (not foolish) heavy amount. Perform 12 to 15 reps then IMMEDIATELY perform jumping lunges for 1-minute. Your quads, hips and glutes will be on fire. Trust me! Repeat this for 3 or 4 sets. Enjoy your Leg Day and thank @kmaecags for the tip! Now let’s go to work! 09.05.12 #motivation (Taken with Instagram)
