Welcome to Free Fitness Gym,
Today we have a short lower core workout that will really help to strengthen this commonly weak area of the stomach. A lot of fitness enthusiasts focus primarily on sit up work to strengthen their stomachs. Regular sit ups will not really work the lower stomach muscles and often this leaves people with a slight pot belly look. Today's workout will help to fix this problem, and although it is only 8 minutes long, some of you may find it hard going. Plank work is always good at targeting all of the core muscles so be sure to include these into your workouts.
Take breaks if you need to and pause the video if you need to. If fitness levels are good and core strength is good, you can try and do this workout twice over. The lower stomach will strengthen in a relatively short period of time, just make sure you target it in most of your workouts. When starting out a lower core workout routine, it can often surprise people at just how weak they feel. The lower back may start to niggle when doing these exercises if the core is weak. As you start to strengthen this area, the back will become better supported (due to stronger core muscles) and back pain will become a thing of the past.
We hope you enjoy the workout and let us know how you are getting on.
