TrimSole Tona - Exercise Plan

Tie up your laces and christen your fabulous new TrimSole® Tona’s with a few classic lower body toning moves. You can do them anytime, anywhere! Make it a regular thing, for the best results we would suggest 3 to 4 times a week. If you’re great at multi tasking why not get in front of the TV and coinside it with your favourite soap! That way It’ll hardly be like exercise at all and you will soon notice the difference. Who needs the gym? Go on, give it a go...

The perfect lunge...

Lunges are fabulous for working your legs and giving you a sexy bottom! The moves are simple to master and they hold little risk however if you suffer with bad knees make sure you don’t over do it. To work that little bit harder grab two medium dumbells (or two baked bean cans) and hold them by your side while you perform the exercise.

The perfect technique...

Make sure you are properly warmed up before starting the exercise.
Grab your weights if you are using them, if not place your hands on your hips, stand up straight with your feet together... take a deep breath in.
Lunge forward taking a generous but controlled step, lower yourself down at a steady pace tensing your hamstring and bottom muscles. Keep your head up and back straight, breathing out as you go.
Once your back knee is almost touching the floor stop and hold your position for a second or two.
Slowly straighten your front leg and return to a standing position. Do this 15 times then repeat the exercise with the other leg.

The perfect squat...

Squats are the ultimate exercise for toning legs and give a great boost to your overall core strength. Paired with a set of dumbells you really can’t get any better. The squat works every muscle beneath your waist but be sure to master the technique from the start to avoid injury.

The perfect technique...

Make sure you are properly warmed up before starting the exercise.
Grab your weights if you are using them, if not place your hands lightly on the back of your head. Stand up straight with your feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart and your toes pointing slightly outwards.
Slowly breathe in as you lower your body down by bending your knees. You should feel the weight on the front of your thighs. Your back should be straight and your head up.
When your legs are almost parallel with the floor hold the position for a moment then push back up breathing out as you go.
Repeat the exercise 15 times.

The perfect pelvic raise...

Another bottom pleaser, pelvic raises perfectly target your buttock muscles but thats not the only area that will benefit. This exercise will also help to strengthen your lower back and work your abdominals making it a great all rounder for fat burning and toning.

The perfect technique...

Make sure you are properly warmed up before starting the exercise.
Lie down with your knees bent upwards and your feet on the floor placing your heels directly under your knees. Your arms should be resting by your side.
Tighten your abdominal and bottom muscles while you lift your pelvis slowly off the floor creating a bridge effect.
Hold the position for the count of 3 then lower back down to the starting position.
Repeat 10 times. Gradually increase the repetitions over time.

The perfect rear leg raise...

If you want to look fabulous in your Daisy Dukes this summer then rear leg raises are for you! You can really feel the burn with this exercise as it works deep in to your bottom and thigh area. It will also help to strengthen your back and inner core muscles.

The perfect technique...

Make sure you are properly warmed up before starting the exercise.
Kneel down with your hands flat on the floor, positioned slightly in front of your shoulders. There should be a 90 degree angle between your hamstring and calves.
Slowly extend the leg out behind you, raised up slightly keeping your back straight not arched.
Hold the raised position for about 3 seconds, you should begin to feel the burn in your bottom muscles and upper thigh. To work slightly harder pulse the leg a few times before lowering back down.
Repeat 10 to 12 times on each side, making sure to keep your knee off the floor between reps.
