Cossack Squat
This exercise provides a unique training stimulus for the lower body that will shape your glutes and thighs from every angle, says Jon-Erik Kawamoto, strength coach and owner of JK Conditioning.
To do it: Stand with feet much wider than shoulder width, arms relaxed by sides. Squat as deep as possible to the left, while turning right toes up, flexing right foot (right leg remains straight and torso leans slightly forward to maintain balance). Extend arms straight out from shoulders. Return to the starting position and perform on the opposite side to complete one rep. Do 2 to 4 sets of 8 to 12 reps.

Plie squats
This fun variation of the classic bodybuilder favourite hits the inner legs and can be performed with no equipment (holding a dumbbell or kettlebell is an option).
How to
1. Standing upright, move your feet so that you are in the classic 'plie' position – toes pointing out, core tight and stance as wide as you are able to properly and comfortably execute the move (aim for shoulder width).
2. Keeping your pelvis straight and upper body straight (this is not a squat per se, we are not sitting back), lower your body until your thighs are close to or at parallel with the floor. Don't force it but work toward it.
3. I like to stay for a moment to squeeze my glutes before returning to the starting position.
4. If balance is an issue, feel free to hold on to a park bench or even a tree, just ensure there isn't excessive dependency.
B: 3 x 15; A: 15 reps.
