In order to achieve a toned and sculpted stomach, go no farther than Vera’s preferred program for strengthening the core.
She stresses the need of working every muscle group in the abdominal region in order to have a strong, defined core. Am I prepared to uncover her mysteries? Alright, let us get moving.
1. Plank Variations for Core Stability
The foundation of Vera’s routine begins with planks, which engage the entire abdominal region and build strength in the back and shoulders. Beginning with a basic plank, straighten your body from head to toe and hold for 30 to 60 seconds.
Try side planks to work your oblues or plank jacks for an extra cardio burn to increase difficulty.
2. Bicycle Crunches for Target Obliques
By utilizing bicycle crunches, Vera subsequently strengthens her side abs. As you lie on your back, bend your knees so that they form a right angle. Then, touch your elbows to the knee on the other side in a clockwise motion. Perform 15–20 repetitions on each side while maintaining a tight core and controlled movements.
3. Leg raises for lower abs
To strengthen your lower abdominals, Vera suggests doing lying leg lifts. Begin by extending your legs while lying flat on your back. Gently bring your legs up to a right angle with your body, then lower them down so your heels do not touch the floor.
Doing these exercises on a regular basis will help you achieve a trimmer waist and stronger abs. Remember that having a strong core aids with more than just your looks—it also improves your balance, posture, and overall stability!
