Yoga poses to achieve firm legs:
Chair Pose: Squat down with your legs and feet together, arms pointing to the ceiling. Your buttocks will stick out and you want to have the weight in the heels of your feet. Try to minimize the “C” curve in your lower back by engaging the lower core muscles.
Warrior 2: Warrior two pose is a great thigh strengthener. Point your front foot and bend your front knee straight toward the front of the room. The back leg is straight behind you and pointing to the side of the room. Try to create a 90 degree bend in your front knee. Your arms stretch oppositely to the front and back of the room, gaze forward.
Airplane Pose: Stand on one leg and point your back leg to the back of the room with pointed toe. Keep your standing leg strong and firm and try to get your body parallel to the floor. Buttocks and thighs are firmed very much in this pose.
Standing Splits: Stand on one leg and bring your other leg to the back of the room, striving to one day point it to the ceiling. Keep hips forward to the front of the room and bend over to touch the floor, toes, or shin, depending on your flexibility. This tones all the muscles in both legs tremendously.
Horse Pose: Stand to the side of the room with your legs spread wide. Point toes 45 degrees out and bend knees down to a 90 degree bend in the knees. Keep your back straight and firm. An arm variation to try here is hands together at heart’s center.
