Hi everybody, it's Shauna with Action
News's fitness tip. I'm at the AB
Apartments in King of Pressia. Come down
to the floor. Get down on your mat. This
is all about the abs. You ready? Let's
do it together. We're going to hold a
light dumbbell. Okay, so everybody
knows, right, what a bicycle is,
but we're not on a bicycle, but we're
pedaling our legs. Perfect. We're going
to do that, but we're going to pass a
weight underneath the knee for a little
extra spice. Okay, you want to do it?
Let's do it. Come on, I'll show you.
Laying down on the ground, right? I tuck
my tailbone under, really engaging my
core, right? That small little pelvic
tilt, lifting my legs up. So, here's
where the magic happens. You ready?
Let's do it together. We're going to
crunch up, extending the right leg,
passing the weight to the left hand, and
back down. So, we're just I'm just going
to keep moving my legs and I'm just
going to pass that weight underneath the
knee. See how my shoulders come up and
elevated? My chin is tucked. My belly is
completely pulled in. And we're going to
come back down. Phenomenal exercise that
is not your typical crunch, right? And
you're getting that lengthening and
extension. Really hitting those lower
abs as well. 12 to 15 on the left. Then
you're going to take a small break and
do it on the right leg as well. Amazing
exercise. making sure you're not
straining the neck. But I know you can
do it. I know you can do hard things.
And this exercise will definitely leave
those abs burning, right? Listen, at the
end of the day, movement is everything.
So, what are you waiting for? Get your
body moving and your core stronger with
this one.
