Hamstring Curls off an exercise ball

Start lying on your back and calves elevated on an exercise ball. Extend your ups towards the sky and with your hips lifted the entire time, roll the ball in towards your body and back out. Perform 10 slow and steady.

Leg Extensions with hips lifted

Start lying on your back and calves elevated on an exercise ball. Extend one leg straight out in front of you with your toe pointed. You will hold this pose for a full 10 seconds before moving to the other side. Squeeze your quads, keeping your leg strong and straight. Be mindful of your core too, keeping it tight for stability. Aim for 10 reps on each side but working your way up from 5, if need be. This is a killer burn!

Exercise Band knee openers

Start lying on your back with and exercise band around your shins and hips lifted. Open up your knees and hold for 2 seconds then bring your knees back in to touch. Repeat the movement until you have completed 10 reps. Be sure to keep your hips lifted the entire time and glutes squeezed.

3 point Hip openers

Start lying on your back with and exercise band around your shins and hips lifted. Open up your knees, slow and controlled, then bring your knees in to touch, drop hips to the ground and repeat movement until you have completed 10 reps.

Lying leg extensions

Lying on your side with an exercise band around your shins. Bend your lower leg and extend your top leg straight.
