Get Ready to Tone Your Core!

A strong core is the foundation for a healthy body and an effective workout routine. But what exactly are the best core exercises to tone your muscles? 

Read on to learn about some of the most effective and impactful core exercises that you can incorporate into your fitness regimen. 

Bicycle Crunches 

Bicycle crunches are a great way to target both your upper and lower abs simultaneously. This exercise requires you to alternate legs and arms, creating a pedaling motion. To perform this exercise, start by laying down on your back with your hands behind your head, elbows out wide. Lift both feet off the ground and bend your right knee toward your chest while bringing your left elbow toward it, then switch sides—left knee to chest while bringing right elbow towards it. Continue alternating in this manner for 30 seconds or longer if desired. 

Plank 

The plank is one of the most effective core exercises out there because it targets all parts of the abdominal muscles at once. This move requires you to hold yourself up using only your forearms and toes while keeping a straight line from head to heels. Make sure not to let your hips drop or raise too high during this exercise; keep them even with the rest of your body throughout for maximum effectiveness. Start by holding for 30 seconds and work up from there as you become stronger. 

Russian Twist 

The Russian twist is another great exercise that works all parts of the abdominal area—especially those obliques! To do this move, sit down on the floor with knees bent, feet flat on the ground, and back slightly tilted forward (think about sitting up tall). Next, lean back slightly so that you feel tension in the abdominal area, lift both feet off the ground, and twist side-to-side using only torso movement (not arms). Keep twisting until each elbow has touched the ground on each side three times—or keep going until you reach exhaustion! 

Core strength is essential for overall health and wellbeing; these three core exercises are an excellent way to get started toning those muscles! So what are you waiting for? It's time to get toning!
