15 minute workout!
Stand up for Flat Abs! Challenge your core with these simple exercises that you can do on your feet. These are great exercises because they are easy on the back, you can do them at the gym or at home, and they are quick and easy!
1. Dumbbell Side bend: Hold a pair of dumbbells at your sides, arms straight and core engaged. Without twisting your upper body, slowly bend to the left as far as you can go, lowering the weight toward your left knee. Pause, then slowly return to an upright position. Repeat, bending to the right side. That is one rep. do 10!
2. Standing Core Stabilization: Standing with your feet hip-width apart, use both hands to hold a dumbbell straight out in front of your chest, core engaged. Moving your torso slightly, slowly rotate your arms to the left as far as you can. Pause, then rotate to the right. That’s one rep. Do 10!
3. Bow Extension: Hold a dumbbell in both hands above your right shoulder and point your left foot out to the side. In one motion, draw your elbows down to lower the weight as you bend your left knee toward your chest. Reverse the movement to return to start. That’s one rep. Do 10 and switch sides.
4. Reverse Dumbbell Chop: Bend your knee, rotate your torso, and hold a dumbbell in both hands outside your left thigh. Keeping your arms straight, swing the weight above your right shoulder as you straighten your legs. Reverse the movement to return to start. That’s one rep. Do 10, then switch sides and repeat.
Good Luck and Have Fun!!
