5-Minute Workout: Rockers

Sep 24, 2013 09:17AM ● By Bailey Hemphill
If you’re looking to tone your lower half, Rockers are great for targeting the inner and outer thighs, as well as the glutes. No weights are necessary for this exercise; however, if you would like more resistance, use a free weight around 10-15 lbs.

Setup & Starting Position

  1. While standing, spread your legs apart as wide as possible (if you use a weight, hold it close to your chest).20130819_bs_0992_2
