#1. Reclining leg circles

Big Circles Leg Pilates are a great way to help you get toned, skinny legs. To do the Big Circles Leg Exercise, imagine your leg as a paint brush. Slowly, you will want to trace the outer edges of a large circle in front of you.

To perform Big Leg Circles, you should have a mat, ankle weights (optional) and an (optional) resistance band. Doing large circles works your outer core, especially the obliques

#2. Front plank low twists

1. Start in a low plank position with your body in a straight line, your elbows bent and under your shoulders and your feet hip-width apart.

2. Rotate your hips to the right and dip your body almost to the floor.

3. Return to the starting position and repeat on the left side. Keep alternating sides until the set is complete.

#3. Side plank mermaids

Assume a side plank position, with your right elbow on the floor directly beneath your shoulder. Stagger your feet so your left foot is in front of your right foot.

(A) Raise your left arm directly overhead—bicep next to your ear, arm extended, and with your palm facing the floor—so your arm is in line with your body. Arch your left arm towards the floor as you raise your hips up in the air.

(B) Return to start. Repeat for a full set; then switch sides. 8 to 10 reps

#4. Butterflies

Lie on your back with your knees open and the soles of your feet together (in a butterfly position). Lengthen your arms overhead so they are resting on the floor.

Exhale and bring your hands and knees toward each other performing a full-body crunch. Your shoulder blades should be off the mat as you perform a small reverse crunch lifting your pelvis a bit off the mat. Hold this position for a moment and really feel your abs squeezing.

Slowly lower your arms and feet back to starting position to complete one rep. Focus on your low back staying in contact with the mat as you lower your feet.

Do 15 reps to complete a set. Do two to three sets.

#5. Reverse tabletop with knee pulls

Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you.
Place your palms, with fingers spread wide, on the floor slightly behind and outside your hips.

Press into your palms and lift your hips and torso toward the ceiling.
Look up to the ceiling, point your toes, and keep your arms and legs straight.

eep your entire body strong and form a straight line from your head to your heels.

Squeeze your core and try to pull your belly button back toward your spine. Hold the position for up to 30 seconds.

If your hips begin to sag or drop, lower yourself back to the floor.
Perform up to three sets of 30-second holds.

#6. Double-lunge twists

Stand with your feet hip distance apart. Hold a five- to 10-pound medicine ball with both hands with your arms outstretched in front of you.

Keep your core stable, and take a large step back with your right foot, planting your foot and then lowering your body until both legs are bent in right angles.

As you sink into the lunge, twist your torso to the left.

Bring your torso back to center, and exhale as you straighten your legs. Bring your feet back together, and then step back on your left leg, twisting to the right.

This completes one rep. Do 10 reps for a set, and do at least two sets.
