9. Clam Series:
The moves of the clam series are done to tone up the upper outer thigh which is the hub of saddlebags.
To Perform:
- Lie on your side and bring the knees and hips to 45 degrees.
- Keep the top pelvis away from your head to bring the bottom pelvis off the floor. This position needs to be maintained for the entire exercise.
- For the lift, lift your top knee up keeping the heels together and then bring it down without moving the pelvis in the process.
- Continue the moves till you feel the effect on the lower glutes.
- Repeat on the other side.
There are other variations of clams that can be done over time. The best part is that these can be performed anytime anywhere and even while watching your favorites on the television.
Lower body is a sensitive region. To avoid injuries begin with basics and then move to more challenging exercises. The key to keeping your body healthy also lies in what you eat. Working out without proper food habits will be a waste of time and energy. So watch out for healthy eating habits at regular intervals to get maximum benefit of any form of exercise you perform.
