Exercises:
Side bridge
Lie on the right side with your right legs and lift up with your right hand so that your body forms a diagonal line. Leave the left hand on the hip and turn the stomach and hold for 60 seconds. If you can not reach 60 seconds, hold for 5 to 10 seconds and rest for 5; continue for 1 minute, but make sure your hips and knees stay out of the floor.
Around the world obliques
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder width apart. Turn your toes out just a little bit, and keep your tailbone tucked. With a light weight (5 pounds top), extend your arms straight up above your head as far as you can. Then, bend from the hips and rich your body sideways. and reach as much as you can. Keep your hips and shoulder square forward. When you can’t reach anymore, rotate toward the floor, relax, and get back to the starting position. You can do 5 reps on each side.
Heel Touches
Lay with back on the floor and bend your knees. Next, lift your head up and touch your heels with your arms spread. Do around 15 reps on each side.
Plank Up-Downs
Get into plank position, with arms out straight directly beneath your shoulders, squeezing your butt and pulling your abs tight into your spine. Then, starting with one arm, lower down onto your forearm, then follow with the next arm. Move back up, one arm at a time, to the fully extended plank. Make sure to avoid rocking your hips, Stokes warns, and keep the core tight the entire time.
Do up to 10 on each side for start.
“It also works your upper body as well,” Stokes notes since your upper body is moving and helping to support your entire plank position.
Standing Trunk Twist
Stand with your knees slightly bent, feet at shoulder width apart. Now, throw your arms in front of you as you are about to push something. Twist your torso to the left, till your face and hands are facing the opposite direction. Move back and twist to the right. Make sure your arms punch in the air at all times. Do 10-15 reps on each side. When you feel more advanced, you can start using some weight.
