Let our professional personal trainer show you how to work out each muscle group starting with plie squats, curtsy lunges and core lunges. The move on to a fantastic arm workout with triceps extensions, bicep curls and front shoulder raises. Finally, wrap up your workout with a standing core twist to help with those sides.
