Standing Lift strengthens your abdominals, obliques, lower-back muscles, and glutes – collectively known as your core – along with your legs.

Step 1
Stand up, feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a weight or medicine ball in front of your stomach.
Step 2
Slightly bend your knees and lower the weight to one side without moving your legs.
Step 3
In one motion, throw the ball over the opposite shoulder with your arms extended. Return the weight to its original position.

Standing Lift targets Abs, Delts, Glutes, Hamstrings, Obliques, Quads as seen below.

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.
