“Here’s one 10-minute workout that actually helps flatten your lower belly without the gym, without crunches, and without sacrificing your back. This one’s for the career mums, tired mums, busy mums, aka real women who don’t have time to waste,” the fitness coach said. These workouts target the deep core (not just surface abs), is easy on the spine, have low-impact modifications, and can be done at home, anytime. Let’s take a look. Dead bugs The first workout of this 10-minute session is dead bugs. You have to go for 12 reps. Lie on your back with arms extended toward the ceiling and knees bent at 90 degrees. Now slowly lower your right arm and left leg toward the floor. It is important to keep your lower back pressed firmly against the ground. Now return to the starting position and switch sides. Dead bugs help to strengthen the core, tone the lower belly without stressing the spine. High knees
Next is the good old high knees for 30 seconds. To do this workout, stand tall and drive your knees up past your waistline in a rapid, running-in-place motion. This movement will engage the core. Ensure your torso is stale. People who are overweight or obese can go for a low-impact modification: standing marches, lifting knees gently without jumping. Remember, iit’s about consistency, not intensity. It is important to note that this exercise may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with knee issues.
Glute bridge marches
Glute bridge marches are perfect to lose belly fat, particularly lower belly. This should be done for 10 reps on each sides. This workout tighten ths core and strengthen the glutes, and also supports lower back. Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat. The hip should be width apart. Now lift your hips into a bridge position, and engage those glutes and core. Without straining, slowly lift one foot off the ground. Now bring the knee toward your chest, then lower it. Repeat this on the other side.Remember, fitness is not really about the hours you spend in the gym, or how intense the workout was, it is about consistency. However, it is important consult a healthcare professional before adding any new workouts to your routine.
