What are Hip dips?
Hips dips are the inward depression along the side of your body, right below the hip bone. Others may call them violin hips. Instead of the outer edges of your hips following curves that look like they were drawn using a protractor, they have indentations. Although they are a normal part of your body structure, there are a few ways to make them less prominent.
These exercises work to tone and strengthen the muscles in your:
- Hips
- Thighs
-Abdominal area
1. Standing kickback lunges
This exercise is great for providing balance and stability in the body. It works your thighs and buttocks. Make sure you keep your front leg and foot engaged. Engage your core throughout the pose as well for it to be more effective.
2. Standing side leg lifts
Standing leg lifts help build up the muscle along the sides of your hips and butt. You may also feel a stretch in your inner thigh. Make sure the movement is steady and controlled. Don’t jerk or rush the movement, and try to keep your body straight. Do not lean to either side. If you're up for a challenge, add weights.
Standing side-to-side squats
These squats work the sides of your legs, buttocks, and hips. Keep your butt low during these squats. Each time your feet come together, squat a bit lower. You can come up a little bit as you move, but don’t come up all the way. You can also do these squats using ankle weights.
