Our midsections are one of the first places the eye gets drawn to and is often the hardest area to target. Try these do-anywhere exercises to help build a strong core and flatten out that tummy. These exercises are easy to do in hotel rooms, on lunch breaks or during commercial breaks.
Lunge Twist
• Stand with your legs hip width apart. Keep your knees slightly bent.
• Lift both your hands in front of you aligning them with your shoulders and parallel to the ground.
• Lunge forward taking a big step with your right leg and sit down so that your knees are at a 90 degrees angle from the floor.
• Your left leg should be placed backwards supported by the toes.
• Keep a neutral, upright spine.
• First twist your torso to the right and then to the left being sure to just twist the torso, not your legs.
