Exercise to slim waist

Exercise to slim waist

09 Jun 2020 by Ted Escobedo   3 min read

There has been internet chatter about the ‘COVID 15.’ Some say that the combination of stress, lack of exercise and additional time at home snacking all add up to the average weight gain of 15 pounds. Well, be damned internet: We have compiled a list of the most effective ‘waist slimming’ exercises. Most of these are really self-explanatory and those that are not can be easily found on YouTube. Here they are:

Flutter kicks

Lie down on your back on a mat with palms underneath your glutes. Raise your legs in a straight line so that they lightly hover over the floor. Tighten your core and kick up and down while alternating both legs. Don't let your feet touch the floor and don't lift your lower back off it either. Do this for 20 seconds and then repeat twice.


Partial sit-up

Lie down straight on your back with knees bent and stretch your arms towards the front. Use your abs to get your torso off the ground. Your head, shoulders, and upper back should be off the ground. Do 40 times or until you feel a burn in your upper abs.


V sit-up

Sit with legs outstretched on a mat, then extend arms at shoulder level and lean back slightly. Lift your legs off the ground and come to a position so that your body is forming a V shape. You can raise the difficulty by raising your arms towards your toes. Hold for 10-20 seconds then return to initial position.
