Hip Dips
How to do it: Lie on your left side and place your elbow directly beneath your shoulder for a forearm variation. Keep your feet stacked on top of one another. Lift your hips off the floor (with the option to hold for 1-2 seconds) then lower your hips. Repeat 10-20 times and switch to the other side. Aim for 3 sets each side.
Pro tip: If you’re having a hard time staying in the side plank position, you can take your top foot and place it on the floor behind you for added support.
The Pilates 100
How to do it: Lie with your back to the floor. Lift your legs to a 65-degree angle. Point your toes and squeeze your heels together. Raise your shoulders off the floor and crunch your upper abs (you don’t have to do a V-sit variation with your back off the floor, as pictured above). Bring your hands in front of you, right by your sides. As you oscillate your arms up and down, inhale through your nose for five pumps and exhale for five pumps. The speed of your arms is dictated by your breath, so you can choose to go faster or slower. Keep pumping and holding this position for 10 complete breaths (or 100 pumps).
