This is the move I do when I want to target my inner thighs, but it works the glutes at the same time

Another variation I do is I lift my heel up and do one leg at a time, I REALLY feel the burn when I do it like that

I don't think I bend my knees past my foot like she is in the video though? I usually have my legs more in a straight line, but I have seen it done both ways.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Directions
1) Stand straight, with legs about 18 inches apart. Squat down, then rise, returning to a full standing position.

2) Keep your knees positioned directly over your feet; try to keep them from falling to the center.

3) Keep your heels squarely on the floor and keep your buttocks firmly tucked under you with your back straight and perpendicular to the floor.

4) Repeat for 10 repetitions, building to 50 reps.

TIP: For a deeper workout, squat all the way to the floor; your heels will leave the floor.
