Abs Challenge for August!

7/29/2021

0 Comments

 
It's summertime! Time to get those abs in shape. You'll look better and feel better- and reap the benefits of stronger core muscles to benefit your posture, balance, and overall sports performance. Let's do this together!

This month's challenge consists of 6 abdominal exercises. You will do each exercise for 1 minute for a 6 minute, all-around ab workout. Every week, or whenever you are ready, add another round to your daily routine. Take a photo before you start, and at the end and post it here on our website or our social media @fuertefitness Instagram and Fuerte Fitness page. Let's bring in some accountability to this challenge- we can help you, and invite your friends for some friendly competition!  There's nothing like it when you can see the results of all your hard work.

Here are some photos of each exercise to get you started. I will be posting videos to keep you motivated throughout the month. You can find them here, or subscribe to the Fuerte Fitness YouTube channel. There, you'll find other workouts and instructional videos to guide your fitness journey.

Exercises, in the order they are shown below (hover over the photo to see the names):
  1. Sit Ups- squeeze butt to protect back.
  2. Leg Lifts or raises- tuck chin or place hands under back to keep it from arching & keep lower back glued to the mat.
  3. Hip Raises- lift tail bone to ceiling as best as you can, you can allow chin to touch or hold on to a kettle bell from behind to get your hips higher. Don't lower legs to touch the floor.
  4. Power Sit Ups- similar to bicycle abs, but bring torso up and touch knee to elbow. 
  5. Hanging Abs- a bit more challenging, but you can also use a roman chair or slings for elbows
  6. Bench Hip Raises- grab bench behind you and use your arms to help get the hips up higher, go slow on the way down!
