Video Transcript: Fit & Lite Yoga Cardio Hips & Thigh Workout


Hi, I'm Denise Austin and welcome to fit and light. Today we're going to target our hips and thighs to slenderize our thighs. Also, I'll give you some extra tips on how to get a good night's rest. We're exercising from the beautiful red mountain spa in Saint George, Utah.



Welcome to a wonderful workout. Let's begin taking a nice deep cleansing breath, bringing in great oxygen and then out any stress that you may have. That's it. Just exhale it out. Again, inhale and exhale. Wonderful. We're going to start with some yoga and we're gonna go right into cardio light and today we're going to focus on our legs, hips, and thighs, and we'll finish it off with a wonderful energizing yoga. And let's stretch to the other side. That's it. You can do it. Give yourself a pat on the back for doing this this morning with me. I'm proud of you. Just stick with the half an hour and you will feel energized, yet relaxed, feeling great. Makes apart, and now slowly shift the weight to the side, to that leg. Nope. Feel the stretch in your inner thighs, girl. Great for circulation. That's it. Stretch your arms fingertip to fingertip.



Relax your shoulders. You've got it. Did you get a good night's rest last night? I hope it's good to get up in the morning and feel refreshed from a good night's rest and slowly stretch to the side. I'm a big believer in sleeping, trying to sleep at least eight hours, seven to eight. I tried to get every single night. That's right. Sleeping really energizes you for the Dang revitalize issue. It's where your body has time to repair. That's right. Juvenate good. Turn your feet to the other side and stretched out are your pose. Hold that strong pose. Beautiful lakes, beautiful back it. Just hold it out there and let stretch to the side side. Loans. Get deep into the stretch. Great for those legs. Excellent. You got it. One of the best things that I like to do is go to bed around 10 30 at night. I try to get in bed asleep by 10 30 and then I wake up at six 30 at worked out, so try to get in a workout every morning.



I find mornings are bad and slowly stretch up. You know why? Because when dinner comes around, I'm too busy getting dinner on the table. The kids, my husband, I try to make a nice dinner every night. So if I worked out in the morning, I know that's my little time for myself to get in shape and I personally work out 30 minutes. Monday through Friday, you could happen. Healthy lifestyle habits. Stretch your spine. Come on, stretch your back. Is your tummy in myopes so pull it up and in. That's the goal here. Okay. Slowly come up, slowly come up. That's it. And twist to the side. Great for the waste Truman's Linda waistline. That's in great twist that relax your shoulders, Trista. The other side twist. Great for that back. Great for your spine and chest forward. Good. Stretching the back, feeling your legs to your hands. Leapt up and turn to the other side. Hold it in your play and down. Back a straight and slowly come up. Go get your shoes on. I'll be right back for cardio light.



Are you ready to burn some calories? Well, let's get started. This is my cardio like segment. Where are we going to burn some calories but also do it low impact so it's easier on your body. Okay, let's get started. We're going to go side to side, side and shot. That's it. Just go side tap. That's it. Good. Go get into it. You could do it yet. I want you to be wearing shoes. When you do cardiovascular workout helps you absorb some of that shock. Okay, that's it. Great. Always taken good care of our joint. Got have them for long time. That's right. Good. Keep it going.

It's all about lifting to that good fit and fabulous apps for Ford and that's what will be great. Let's do arms up, knees up. Good.



Good to know that 30% of American adults aren't getting a good night rest. We've got to change out. You kind of get a good night's sleep. So important for overall good health. Here are a couple of chips. Make sure to exercise new day and the more you the day a real quickly like we are, you'll sleep Loomis for sound. Okay, real quick. Exercise is great. It really helps you get a better night's sleep. That's it. Also, if you can't go to bed at night, research shows that if you just have a warm glass of skim milk, well hell souly you endlessly good. Two more. Just like that. One more. Now hold it up. Get those unions higher. Great. Hi. Tuck in that tummy. Use your abs. Great. You can do it. Good. That's it. And one thing I have learned is don't watch TV in bed when you're ready to go to sleep, go to bed.



Okay? It really does help you call right back to sleep. Fall Asleep. Keep it up. One thing I avoid, it's caffeine. Don't do any coffee, drink or coax or things like that. After 2:00 PM just caffeine can stay in your body up to eight hours. Okay? Now, big believer in a lot of caffeine, you now drink lots of water. That's a Jeff option. Water keep you hydrated. Tumar good and sky side listeners, arms good. You've got it. After you add the certain exercises to workout, you'll work the arms and the legs double the workout and half to time debt. Good. You could do it. Do you use your leg muscles? Come on, shake those guys. Great, good to know. Great, and shake it out. Stretch it out to your back. Straight Pole in the lower 10 that's it.
