CORE WORKOUT
How to Get Started
If you are a beginner start with two sets of 10 15 repetitions, otherwise, aim to do 2 3 sets of 20 repetitions.
Quality is more important than quantity. If you struggle, do fewer repetitions.
EXERCISE MOVEMENT:
o Lie with your tummy on a stability ball and steady yourself by pushing your feet against a wall (or other secure
object).
o Put your arms straight by your sides with your palms facing upwards. This is your starting position.
o Lift your upper body while rotating your palms down to the floor and squeezing your shoulder blades together.
o Slowly lower and rotate your palms back to the starting position.
TIP:
o Make sure you use a resistance band that provides sufficient resistance, so that the exercise is challenging.
o If you use the gym, you can also use the pulley machine.
3. STABILITY-BALL ROLLOUT
AREAS TRAINED: STOMACH (RECTUS ABDOMINIS), CORE (TRANSVERSE ABDOMINUS) & BALANCE
AND COORDINATION
o Kneel behind a stability ball, place your bent elbows on the ball.
o Contract your abs and support your weight in your arms
o Roll the stability ball away from your body about two inches forwards.
o Roll stability ball back to starting position. Repeat.
TIP:
o To control the difficultly of this exercise, just change distance you roll the ball away from your body. The further
away you roll the ball, the more challenging the exercise.
o To increase difficulty, lift your knees off the floor so that your legs are extended, forming a straight line between
your head, shoulders, hips and feet.
o Start slowly, with small movements.
4. STABILITY BALL KNEE TUCKS
o Start in push-up plank position with your shins on a stability ball and your palms on the floor.
o Your body should form a straight line from head to heels.

your chest.
o Briefly pause, and then straighten legs to roll the ball back to your starting position. Repeat
5. SPIDERMAN
AREAS TRAINED: CORE (TRANSVERSUS ABDOMINIS), STOMACH (RECTUS ABDOMINIS), UPPER BACK
(LATS), SHOULDERS (DELTOIDS) AND REAR UPPER ARMS (TRICEPS)
o Sit with your right hip on an exercise ball, extending your right leg forward and your left leg backwards
o Steady your feet against a secure object (e.g. wall) for stability.
o Place your arms behind your head and lower your body sideways over the exercise ball.
o Lift up your torso back up to the starting position.
o Complete one set on the right side and then repeats on the left side.
o Lie with your lower back on an exercise ball, your feet flat on the floor and put your hands by your temples.
o Lift your torso up, and move your right elbow toward your left knee.
o Lower torso back to starting position.
o Repeat the move on the other side side.
EXERCISE MOVEMENT:
For dumbbell exercises, use five- to 10-pound weights. Aim to complete two sets of 8 12 repetitions for each of
exercise. Once you are able to easily do 12 repetitions, try using heavier dumbbells.
3. WALKING PLANK
AREAS TRAINED: FRONT AND MIDDLE OF SHOULDERS (ANTERIOR AND MIDDLE DELTOIDS)

your abs and keep your back straight.)

the left.

4. FRONT RAISE
AREAS TRAINED: FRONT OF SHOULDERS (ANTERIOR DELTOIDS) AND MIDDLE OF SHOULDERS
(MIDDLE DELTOIDS)
TIP: As your arms are straight during the exercise, this move is quite challenging, and youll probably want to use
lighter weights.
5. DIAMOND PUSH-UP
AREAS TRAINED: BACK OF UPPER ARMS (TRICEPS)
6. TRICEPS KICKBACK
AREAS TRAINED: BACK OF UPPER ARMS (TRICEPS)
EXERCISE MOVEMENT:
o Stand with feet more than shoulder-width apart and grasp a dumbbell in your right hand.

o Lie face down with your legs straight and arms by your sides (palms facing the ceiling). Put a folded towel under
forehead for support.
o Keeping your arms straight, raise them off the floor. Hold briefly, squeezing shoulders and lower arms down just

This workout is set up as a 20-minute circuit. Do each exercise for 40 seconds, with about 20 seconds rest in
between. Repeat the circuit twice to maximise your weight-loss. For exercises that require dumbbells, opt for a
weight at which you struggle to complete the last rep of your last set with perfect form.

lunge. The stability ball will roll backward and your shin will move across the ball. Focus on rolling the ball
backward from your pelvis, not your foot.

hands on hips.
