Weekly Wednesday Workout: Swimmers Squat
Weekly Wednesday Workout: Swimmers Squat
Time to work those legs and butt!
If you have been following this Weekly Wednesday Workout series since it started 2 years ago, you would know that we have done an insane variation of squats here. (If you want all of them just search the site!) We have a new one, and these are not easy. They require a lot of balance and concentration, I would even recommend that you stand near to something stable like a chair or table to keep you steady when rising into the leg lift. What I like about this move is that the burn is immediate, not only are you getting the work from the squat but the extra lift wakes those legs right up!
Have you ever tried a swimmers squat?
