Exercise is Must

EXERCISE....MUST TO DO EVERYDAY

       Exercise can be tough because it’s not always easy to figure out which ones to do for specific body parts. That’s why I’ve found these SEVEN exercises that target every single part of your body and only take 10 minutes a day.

1. Plank

       Planks are an amazing exercise to tone your glutes, back, and arms.               It only takes 60 seconds a day and is super easy. 

        To do a proper plank:

• Cross your hands together
• Place your elbows about shoulder width apart under your chest
• Curl in your tail bone to straighten your back
• Hold for up to 60 seconds

2. Push-ups

        Pushups are perfect for exercising your chest and arms.
         In order to do a pushup  correctly:

• Place your hands chest width apart
• Lower your arms until your upper arm is parallel to the floor
• Push back up to the original position

3. Squats

       

       In order to do a perfect squat:

• Keep your feet flat on the ground
• Ensure your knees are behind your toes
• Your hips should be below the top of your knee
• Don’t round your upper back
• Keep your chest up

4. Ball Twist

                                       

        Here’s a great one for your core. All you have to do it:

• Start with your back against a wall
• Bend your knees outward
• Hold a medicine ball at chest level
• Slowly twist from side to side

5. Table Top Leg Extension

                                 

                                     

      This exercise is great for your thighs and bottom.
      All you have to do it:

• Prop yourself up on your hands and knees
• Stretch one leg up and back
• At the same time, stretch the opposite hand up and forward
• Hold for five seconds
• Return to starting position and work opposite side

6. Dead Bug Exercise

                                      

         Despite the creepy name, this exercise is also great for your core. It’s called the “dead bug exercise” because you sort of look like a bug lieing on it’s back. 

       All you have to do it:

• Lie on your back and stretch your arms up to touch your knees
• Lower one leg and arm down until it almost touches the floor, keeping the opposite leg and arm in the same position
• Return to the initial position and work the other half

7. Downward Dog Leg Pull

                                     

         It’s a great way to work your core, thighs and bottom!

• Start in the downward dog position, on all fours pressing back into your heels
• Lift one leg straight back and up like the top image above
• Bring that leg down and in to your chest
• Repeat on the other side
