Have you ever wished for some rockin' abs, but never had enough time or motivation? Well wish no more, I've got some speedy surefire ideas that will tighten that core and get you to where you want to be.
Warm up.
Before you work on your core, you're going to want to warm up. Start with 3 to 5 minutes of running or a light jog, that helps to warm up your core somewhat.
Halos
Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, with a light dumbbell, make circular arm movements above your head. Do this for about 45 seconds.
Planks
Like a push up, you will hold yourself up verticle to the ground, instead of with your hands, you will use your elbows to hold you up. This will warm up your core and send blood flowing to your abs. Do this for about 60 seconds.
Cobra
This warm up is usually found in yoga, but it works great for stretching out your core. To start you lay with your stomach to the floor, with your arms you push your upper body up while the rest of your body stays on the floor. Do this for about 45 seconds.
Excersise 1
To start off your workout you want to do 30 scissor kicks. First you lay on the floor stomach to ceiling, then you lift one leg to the ceiling while the other stays on the ground, then you lower that the and lift the other one. For a challenge, lift your shoulders off the ground while you do it.
Excersise 2
After you are finished your scissor kicks, you cant start up on some jack knife sit-ups. First you lay on your back, then you lift your hands to your feet then go back to the floor. Do 30 of these.
Cool down
When your finished your workout, cool down with a light jog or walk for 5 minutes.
