Lower Body Move of the Week: Squat to Single Leg Calf Raise

I may have been overly ambitious with this exercise as you can see in the video, even I have some balance issues.  But here we go anyhow!  

• Begin with your slightly wider than hip width apart.
• Lower your butt down, like you are sitting in a chair, keeping you hips back, spine straight, and knees BEHIND your toes.  
• As you raise your body back up, squeeze your legs and butt to get the most out of the exercise.
• Shift your weight to your right leg, lift your left leg off the ground, and raise up on your right toe. 
• Place your left leg back down, and repeat the squat, but this time shift your weight to your left leg, and do a calf raise. 
• Do 3 sets of 15 repetitions.
