5 standing crunches to tone the abdomen (20 minute routine)

The fat that accumulates in the abdominal area is undoubtedly one of the most difficult to eliminate. Adopting a proper diet is essential to get rid of it, but it is also necessary to follow a targeted training routine that allows you to act directly on the abdominal area.

However, not everyone can perform classic abdominal exercises. Partly due to poor physical condition, partly due to back problems. Therefore, here are 5 abdominal exercises that you should do standing up to burn fat and tone the abdominal area.

First exercise.

From a standing position, arms at your sides, perform a stationary walk. After 5 minutes, he extends his arms forward and bends his elbows. At the same time he raises his left leg. Repeat 20 times with each leg

Second exercise.

From the same position as in the previous exercise, bend your left leg as you bring your elbows toward your ribs. Next, raise your arms in front of you, clasping your hands together (as if you were praying). Separate your hands and extend your left arm out to the side as you lift your left leg. Try to touch the toe with your hand. Repeat 20 times on each side.

Third exercise.

From a standing position, with your hands behind your head and your elbows open, shift your body weight to your right side as you lift your left leg. Bend your torso, as if you wanted to touch your left knee with your right elbow. Repeat 20 times on each side.

Fourth exercise.

Perform a normal squat. As you stand up, raise your right leg laterally, trying to touch the ball of the foot with your hand. Repeat 20 times on each side.

Fifth exercise .

From a standing position, with your legs slightly apart and your arms stretched out in front of you, lean your body to the right, trying to touch the ball of your right foot. Repeat 20 times on each side.

This standing abdominal exercise routine lasts 20 minutes. Do it two or three times a week to see the first results after the first month.
