Milk this move for all it's worth: Tone your lower half, sculpt shoulders and thighs, and tighten your mid-section.

Fill two one-gallon milk containers ½ to ¾ full of water (seal tightly!).
Hold a container in each hand and stand with feet hip-width apart, knees soft. Raise your right arm in front of you until it’s parallel to the floor.
Squat until your thighs are parallel to the floor (or as close as you can get) while lowering your right arm and raising your left arm straight out in front of you.
Lower your left arm and raise your right arm as you push through your heels to lift yourself back up to starting position. Repeat 15 times; work up to 3 sets.
