Face sink with legs shoulder width apart.  Slowly bring one leg straight back. (To work more of the gluteal muscles, move leg back and out to the side at a slight angle.)  Focus on the muscles you are working  and keep your core engaged. Hold each repetition for a 3-count of “SQUEEZE-IT-IN.”   Continue for 2 sets of 12 or until your dishes are done, whichever comes first.

Variation: While extending leg behind you, pulse leg up and down for a count of 12.
