Tone Your Trouble Zones

Cinch Spill-Over: Alphabet Superman

Targets: Lower back, butt, and hamstrings

Lie facedown on ground with arms by sides, raising them a few inches off ground so that palms are facing forward, thumbs pointing up.
Lift chest and feet off ground a few inches, squeezing glutes.
In lifted position, use arms to form letters, holding each pose for 3 counts: First bring arms out from hips at 45-degree angle (to form an M); then move out to sides at shoulder level (to form a T); then bend elbows about 90 degrees (to form a W); lastly extend arms diagonally overhead (to form a Y).
Reverse movement (forming Y, W, T, M), then lower chest and legs.
Do 3 sets of 6 reps.

Trainer: Brett Hoebel
