Butterfly Pose

The butterfly pose helps to stretch your inner thighs and groin, which helps reduce the size of your FUPA (Upper Pubic Fat).

1. Sit tall with the soles of your feet touching in front of you
2. Keep your spine straight
3. Push your knees down with your elbows
4. Pull core muscles UP

Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend

Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend can help you increase your hip mobility. Toning your lower core and around the hip area will give you a leaner and more sculpted look.

1. Sit with your legs out in front of you, wide apart
2. Flex your feet with toes pointing up
3. Fold forwards, bringing your hands between your legs
4. Resist the urge to arch your back
5. If needed, feel free to rest your stomach on a Yoga Wheel, Yoga Block, or pillows

Reclining Bound Angle Pose

Stretch and strengthen your inner thighs with Reclining Bound Angle Pose, which can help reduce the size of your FUPA (Upper Pubic Fat).

1. Sit tall with the soles of your feet touching in front of you
2. Keep your spine straight
3. Place a Yoga Block under your lower spine
4. Lean back bringing your elbows to the floor
5. Keep your head and hips resting on the mat

Plank

Planks can help strengthen your core, wrists, and arms. Strengthening major body parts can increases your lean muscle mass, which burns more calories while you rest, and can help make other exercises even easier for you.

1. Get on all fours with fingers equally spread apart
2. Extend legs back into a pushup position
3. Contract your core, squeeze your booty, and hold the plank position

Side Plank

Side planks can help strengthen your core, wrists, and legs, while increasing your muscles and boosting your metabolism to help you sustain higher levels of caloric burn while resting.

1. Get on all fours with fingers equally spread apart
2. Extend legs back into a pushup position
3. Position shoulders directly over your wrists
4. Contract your core, squeeze your booty, and turn your heels to the right
5. Stack your left ankle ontop of the right ankle
6. Hold the plank position
