#BodyWeightTuesday- No. 2
You do not need a fancy gym to find some extra room for fitness. Try these at home, work, with friends, alone, ANY way you choose! Here is....
Number 2: Bicycle Crunches
What It Does: Engages and tones all sides of your abdominals
How to Do It: Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor, at least a foot away from your buttocks. Place your hands behind your head with your elbows out to the side and your neck straight. Raise both knees to a 90-degree angle until your thighs are parallel to the floor. With your head lifted off the floor, bring your right knee and your left armpit toward each other, extending your left leg straight at the same time. Hold for a moment and switch so that you’re now bringing your left knee and your right armpit toward each other, extending your right leg straight. Continue switching back and forth until you’ve completed 10 to 15 reps on each side.
Be careful not to…bring your elbow to your knee. Aim to reach your armpit toward your knee instead, which engages the obliques, or side abdominals.
