Do you want to sculpt your stomach to achieve lean, tight muscular abs? Look no further because we have you covered with an awesome workout plan that will help you achieve just that.
Shield is currently running the #MoveMoreAtHome campaign to help millions of people across the country keep in shape by sharing a wide range of effective home workouts. They’ve partnered with various fitness gurus, and in this specific workout, they joined forces with personal trainer Geoff Sa Joe to put together these easy core exercises.
Standing crunch
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands in front of your chest. Lift your right knee towards your left elbow and bring it down. Then lift your left knee towards your right elbow and bring it down. Keep alternating on both sides in fast motion for 30 seconds while ensuring that your abs are engaged.
(Rest for 15 seconds)
Mountain climber
Start by getting into a plank position with your back flat, hands shoulder-width apart and your head and neck in alignment. Bring your right knee towards your chest as far as you can then switch legs and repeat this step with your left knee. Continue alternating as fast as you can for 30 seconds and remember to inhale and exhale with each leg change.
(Rest for 15 seconds)
Russian twists
Sit on the floor and bend your knees. Pull your abs to your spine and lean back slightly while keeping your back straight. Hold your hands to your chest and twist your torso to the left, then switch to the right. Do this for 30 seconds and if this feels too easy for you, lift your feet off the ground while doing this exercise or do it with a small ball – this will intensify your ab workout.
(Rest for 15 seconds)
Power Plank
Place your forearms on the floor with your elbows on the ground, directly underneath your shoulders. Make sure your feet are hip-width apart, your back flat, stomach off the ground and your head and neck are in a neutral position. Hold this plank for 30 seconds.
(Rest for 15 seconds)
Repeat the entire four-move circuit three times.
And just like that, you’re done! Do this workout at least 3 times a week and remember to use a Shield antiperspirant roll on after your post-workout shower to keep your underarms smooth, fresh and smelling great, so that you never have to worry about body odour.
