Get A Flat Stomach And A Slim Waist!

[WhatTheHellAmy]

Being fit is something we all should have in mind. Being healthy is important and working out is the way to get there. Today I'm gonna share a routine that focus on the stomach and waist:

You drop it like it's hot and then you get up. Like this:

10 EACH SIDE

10 EACH LEG

Windmills

20x

Double leg circles

Don't separate those legs!! and don't let them down!

Do 20x

Russian twists

20x of this

Plank taps

10 EACH LEG

Standing woodchops

10 EACH LEG

And remember... never skip leg day!

That last photo of the "no skipping leg day" should be up in the locker room of every gym in the world!

#JohnnyBravo? :-D

[Prof_Don]

My hips are chronically tight, so some of these exercises look like they can prove to be useful! :)

[WhatTheHellAmy]

glad you liked it!

[tifftaff01]

just did all these n the only ones that were actually hard were the windmills lol time to hit the shower 😅💪🏽🚿

[ChromAzonyx108]

Cool, I've been looking for some new core exercises.

I've been doing something similar to the side plank hip drop, but like this:

I've also been doing something similar to russian twists but with straight legs. There's a similar move in yoga called parivrtta navasana (revolved boat pose).

I don't understand what's going on in the picture for double leg circles. Could you explain it?

[WhatTheHellAmy]

You put them up like the pic, then you make circles with them being closed and up. Don't let them down and do 20 circles.
Like you were drawing a circle with your legs

[ChromAzonyx108]

I tried the side plank exercise - that one's pretty good. I find it easier to put my hand to the floor rather than my forearm as it's too uncomfortable for my elbows.

I tried thai planks but I find it hard to keep balanced - I can't do it the way that girl is doing it in the gif/video above.

Oh, and I tried double leg circles but it doesn't do much for me.

[WhatTheHellAmy]

I do it with the forearm and I agree. It's uncomfortable.

Yup, same happens to me, but after some practice, I do it.

It does hurt! haha, try doing it for a longer time. Just let the legs down.

do it like her

[ChromAzonyx108]

Oh, for the thai planks I just noticed that she keeps her forearms in a triangle shape rather than parallel. I'll give that a try to see if it helps.

For the double leg circles perhaps I need to exercise my patience too.
I find it feels funny on the tailbone though.

[WhatTheHellAmy]

good luck!

[ChromAzonyx108]

thanks!

[ConsultantIsBack]

[WhatTheHellAmy]

like this XD

[ConsultantIsBack]

NICE!! ya i like to do various crunches/russian twists with them
and then you can turn around and hold the back (where your feet go normally) and do leg raises. Those exercises, plus planks are what I do for abs.

[WhatTheHellAmy]

yeah man, that's when it sucks to be mexican XD our food is greasy asf

[ConsultantIsBack]

Mexican food ya holy shit legit mexican tacos are Soooooo greasy. And lard in tamales lol, and all the enriched flour tortillas (i always ask for whole wheat tortillas where possible).

[ConsultantIsBack]

and Tres leches omgggggg

[WhatTheHellAmy]

we're competing now huh?

well, I do the abs roller! XDD

yeah, I do some of that too, but I like doing crunches on the floor. Don't know why lol

[WhatTheHellAmy]

ugh yes :( it's hard to say no to tortillas, but I'm not a huge fan of tacos or tamales. I love quesadillas and gringas tho.

[Rahdle]

You know, there's other things one can do to stay fit 😜😘

[WhatTheHellAmy]

sucks to be single XD

[Rahdle]

Agreed. Wish you lived closer XD haha

[WhatTheHellAmy]

[Rahdle]

[WhatTheHellAmy]

[Rahdle]

[WhatTheHellAmy]

thanks hun, you too! <3

[Zorax]

Nice Take, I especially like some of the pictures ;)

[WhatTheHellAmy]

haha me too XD

[WeaponZero]

The best core exercises are compound movements that work the whole body. Barbell squats, deadlifts, kettlebell swings, Turkish get ups, and standing overhead press.

[douride2]

That last pic. LMAO hahaha Is that real or a photo shop?

[WhatTheHellAmy]

maybe real D:

[rjroy3]

Medicine ball Russian twists and garhammer legraises gave me the best results. Decline crunches/crunches with legs elevated are next in line.

[LittleSally]

Love this mytake! Literally saved all of these pics to not have an excuse not to do these. =)

[tifftaff01]

same lol

[LittleSally]

@tifftaff01 xD

[Femdomina]

I already have slim waist and flat stomach, but I like this type of workout

[james_mark]

[Polocrew]

@YourFutureEx Strong name to flirt ratio. #nohomo

[joeb73]

one question how hip friendly are they?

[WhatTheHellAmy]

eh... it hurts :/

[Mimi_8]

This has motivated me to workout 👏🏻

[WhatTheHellAmy]

YAAAY!

[John_Doesnt]

The last one is totally me. I always skip leg day and go for working just the upper body.

[Spiorad_Aisce]

That looks a tough workout but no pain, no gain.

[Anonymous]

I was doing the plank, my whole body was shaking and i fell on my balls WTF, i need free medical insurance now ><

[Opinion Owner]

Pff wtf? i don't need (like) i need $$$

[Byakuyarko]

[YourFutureEx]
