The key to really benefiting from this, (yes, you will look like a geek), is to commit to it.Get over feeling like a dork, and really focus on your form while you fill up with gas.

Here is how to do the squat while you fill up:

Get into a deep squat position, keeping your back straight and your abs tight, Imagine a tall string being pulled from the top of your head so you sit tall as if you are in a chair. (Make sure you keep shoulders down.)

The goal is to hold this position for at least 30 seconds. If you feel you can do another 30 seconds, go for it, but really listen to your body.

For a more advanced move, simply put your arms above your head and hold them straight, with your fingers reaching for the sky. ( Really try to keep your shoulders down and your abs tight.

You can challenge yourself by holding this position till your tank is filled.

Watch video and see my new friends I made at the gas pump, try it.

Or…mix it up with plies!

I like to mix things up a bit at the gas station. Try doing plies while you fill up.

Make sure you remember your form. Turn your feet slightly out and stand with your feet shoulder width apart.Make sure that when you bend your knees, that your knee doesn’t go beyond your toe. Also, make sure that you keep your abs tight and back straight. Try to get in 20 plies while you fill up. (Or, do as many as you can, untill your tank is filled.)

Listen to your body!
