YOU: The Owner's Manual Workout

A good workout is one that strengthens and stretches all your major muscles. This 23-move workout from top trainer Joel Harper fits that description perfectly. By RealAge

12. Ballet Squat

(Strengthens buttocks and legs) Holding weights, assume an extreme version of "second position" in ballet -- feet more than shoulder-width apart, toes pointed to sides. Keeping arms straight but relaxed, bring hands together (palms facing), and lower your body as far as you comfortably can -- be sure your knees stay over your ankles, not your toes. Stop when your thighs are parallel to the ground. Lift your body back up, keeping your knees slightly bent. Throughout, maintain a straight line from the top of your head to your tailbone -- don't lean forward. Work up to 25 repeats.
