Welcome to Free Fitness Gym,
Today we have a great 'Gut Buster' workout to target that troublesome lower tummy area. The lower core is often neglected by even regular fitness enthusiasts because most people focus on sit up work to tone their stomachs. Whilst all sit up work is indeed very good for strengthening the core, it is important not to neglect the lower core muscles which are not recruited very much with regular sit ups. People often get disappointed when they do lots of exercise and still find they have a pot belly. Try this workout a few times a week as a stand alone workout or as part of your fitness routine. The lower core will start to tone up nicely. Remember to really get great results you will need to eat a clean, healthy diet to compliment your workouts
Work hard and try to control the movement throughout all of the exercises. Do not use speed to get the exercise done, instead do the exercise in a nice controlled manner that forces the stomach to be fully engaged. We hope you enjoy and let us know how you are getting on.
Workout Breakdown
Set interval timers to 50 seconds work, 10 seconds rest (or follow timings in our workout video)
-Straight leg raise................Go at a pace that is at pace with your breathing
-Floor glide..........................Go nice and slow to really get the muscles doing all of the work
-Plank star jumps................Suck the stomach throughout the entire exercise
-Cycling................................Try and lower the legs as much as possible and fully extend them
-Straight leg raise
-Floor glide
-Plank star jumps
-Cycling
We hope you enjoy the workout and would love to hear how you got on
