This week's workout focuses on core strength. A strong, stable core is important for much more than a slick six pack! Relief from back pain, improved posture, balance, and overall athletic performance are just a few of the benefits of a strong core.
Perform this routine 2-3 times per week on non-consecutive days in addition to your usual training regime.
With each set you will deduct TWO repetitions, or 10 seconds per exercise. Complete 10 sets for the full count down.
- 60 sec Plank
- 20 Supermen
- 20 Alternating Leg Drops (10/leg)
- 20 Crunches on a BOSU ball (protect your lower back!)
As the famous saying goes, "Feel the burn"!
And as usual, don't forget to stretch. My favourite core stretches include: child's pose, cat-Ccow, and cobra pose!
