Welcome to your five minute abs and booty circuit. So let's get started. The first exercise really target tones through the abdominals and pull in those abs. It also works the front of the tummy and the sides of the tummy. But make sure you're standing up nice and tall. Now place your hands behind your head and lay them through the spine. Feel your lift in the abdominals. Zip up those abs firm the abdominals by tightening them up. Feel like you're wrapping those abs all around. That's it. Belly button in. Pull up and in. That's it.
Now we're gonna add a little twist. This is how you're gonna get the waistline of all those oblique muscles. They work and trim the sides of the waistline. That's it. Just twist. Pull the belly button towards your spine. You got this? Come on, twist. Two more. Last one. Beautiful. And now keep your arms right up there.
We're gonna lift the leg and pull it down. Lift and touch. That's it. Now really target training the sides of the waistline. That's it. But always think good posture. And the leg you're standing on is really strong too. So this is working on your balance for your core muscles. Two more. That's it. Last one. Beautiful.
Let's switch to the side. Pull your abs up and in and just do a nice crunch. It's like a side crunch, so it's all standing easy on the back. You got this great. And also it's so great if you pull in your tummy, really tighten it up. Great. Almost brace your abs. That's it. Two more like a girdle. Pull it in. Last one. Okay, let's work that booty. We're gonna take it down and lift up. Take it down and squeeze and tighten up that tushy. Look right from behind. Always make sure you're thinking about quality over quantity - is your back straight? Good. Pull the abs up and in. Core muscles are strong. And your target tone right back here for that booty. We got one more lift and hold. Okay. Switch sides.
