Body Saw Push up position

Elevating the intensity of the body saw entails progressing into a push-up stance. While maintaining a neutral alignment of your spine and neck, a continuous engagement of your core, and a display of power in your chest and arms, you will actively propel your energy through the ground during the execution of this more demanding variation.

Sit ups - strength your abdominal muscles

★★★★★

To perform sit-ups, start in a lying position on the floor with your knees bent and your hands extended up toward the ceiling. Engage your abdominals and pull yourself up towards your thighs and knees, with your hands following your movement. Once you've reached maximum tension, release the abs and lower your upper body back down to the ground.

Butt Ups

★★★★★

Butt ups offer an excellent way to target the abdominal muscles, with a primary focus on the lower abdominal area. Begin in a supine position, with your hands positioned alongside your hips. Elevate your legs to form a 90-degree angle and initiate the movement by engaging your abdominal wall, directing your feet upward. It's imperative to maintain a constant connection between your back and the floor, preventing any undue stress on your neck while you aim to bring your feet closer to the ceiling.

Plank Leg Raises - target the glutes and core muscles

★★★★★

Plank leg raises are a great exercise for targeting the glutes and core muscles. Start in a high plank position with an engaged core, a neutral spine, and your chest and shoulders over your hands. Lift one leg up towards the ceiling, then lower it back down, and alternate sides to complete one repetition. This exercise helps strengthen your core and works on improving your glute muscles for a well-rounded workout.
