Add pulses with each breath if you like.<\/li>\n<li>Bend the top leg so there are 90-degree angles at the hip and at the knee. Raise and lower the shape from the floor up to hip height while the bottom leg remains straight.<\/li>\n<li>With your top leg still bent at a 90-degree angle, place it on the floor in front of your body. Keeping the bottom leg straight, pulse it up and down, squeezing the inner thighs towards one another.<\/li>\n<li>Keep the top leg on the floor in front of you. Engage your core to stabilize the rest of your body. Raise the bottom leg a couple inches above the floor and slowly draw softball-size circles with your toes for 30 seconds.
