5 ways to shake up your ab routine


 
Let’s be honest: Crunches are boring and rarely lead to results. That said, we’ve got five moves that will tighten your middle and are fun. Grab a bud and get ready to crank your core work.

1. Planks with a twist
Start in a push-up position. Tighten your abs. Keeping your middle contracted, bend your left knee in toward your belly button. Hold for one breath. Return to start. Repeat on the other side. Continue for one minute.

2. Partner sit-ups
You’re gonna need a partner and a 8-pound medicine ball for this. Sit across from you bud, with your knees bent and toes touching. One girl should hold the medicine ball and do a sit-up. When she gets back to the top, she should toss the ball to her bud. Repeat back and forth for 20 reps each.

3. Medicine ball pass
Stand back to back with your bud. One girl should start with the ball and twist her torso to pass it to her partner. Keep passing it back and forth (alternate directions to keep it interesting) for 20 reps.

4. Shoulder stand
Start laying on the your back. Place your hands palm side down under your lower back. Using your abs, lift your whole body up until you are perpendicular to the floor and your weight is resting your shoulders. Note: DO NOT put pressure on your neck. It’s easiest if you start by lifting your legs up, then your butt and then, finally, your torso.

5. V-ups
Start on your back with your legs straight out and your arms over your head. At the same moment, lift your arms and legs up until your body forms a “V” shape. Keep your legs straight! Slowly lower back to start. Repeat 20 times.

MOD MOD MOD Hi!!! I was wondering what you think: I want to burn fat in my stimach and thighs so how long should i run a day? I live in a really hilly area. Should i run or jog? Will running tone my stomach? Thanks so much!

 

 

Hey chickadee! Running or jogging... both are great exercises! Maybe, try running for a half hour each day, to start out with. It'll tone every part of your bod! Smile

I was doing SO well with my exercise and everything, and then these past two weeks i just fell into this demotivational rut. I havent excercised in two weeks and i just feel so unmotivated and fat and gross and guilty. I feel guilty ALL the time. Ive had eating disorders in the past, so its nothing new to feel this way, but how can i get myself up and motivated again and make myself feel better? Thanks!

i usually jump around on my trampoline doing stretches, the flips and jumps while moving around and it helps all my muscles and my abs by doing various flips, back bends, sit-ups, etc. it really works Smile

I've asked my mom if I can save, buy new bras & emergency period supplies by a text-letter (shy girls, look on my profile for more!). she said yes. All i know is that we're going bra shopping after my sis goes to college (in August). But i'm scared to ask her when we're gonna teach me shaving & 4 the period supplies. Help! BTW, iI also wnat to ask if i can bra shop earlier Smile




Hey girlie -- just ask her! She's your mom and these are things all girls need, so she should be very open to helping and talking with you Smile

Which swimsuit style is your summer go-to?



 
 

Tight, hip-hugging jeans are hazardous to your health.
