Calories Burned:  306 calories per hour   (based on a body weight of 150 lbs.)
Primary Muscles Trained:  Gluteus Maximus
Secondary Muscles Trained:  Quadriceps
Instructions: 
Start: Grab a Bosu balance trainer, Airex pad, or even a sofa cushion—anything that will stay in place while providing an unstable surface. Stand on the Bosu on one foot (barefoot is best) and raise the other leg.

Movement:
Now push your hips back a few inches—just enough to bend the knee of your supporting leg. Hold for 15 seconds, and repeat with your other leg. That's 1 repetition.
