BEGINNER
Standing Lift
Standing Lift strengthens your abdominals, obliques, lower-back muscles, and glutes – collectively known as your core – along with your legs.
Instructions
- Stand up, feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a weight or medicine ball in front of your stomach.
- Slightly bend your knees and lower the weight to one side without moving your legs.
- In one motion, throw the ball over the opposite shoulder with your arms extended. Return the weight to its original position.
Tips
- Keep your knees apart and centered over your feet throughout the exercise. Don't let them roll as you spin.
- Keep your feet flat on the floor and focus your weight on your heels.
- Do not round your shoulders forward during the exercise. Pull your shoulders down and back.
