If you always wonder why you can’t get any leaner, try these 4 moves. Those trouble hidden zones we all know of do need a little extra work to tone. For starter, follow these exercises closely will help you reach your goal.
Push-ups
Push up exercise works the entire body, burning a significant amount of calories, as well as tightens your chest, shoulders, triceps and core to keep thing perky in your bikini.
Movements
- Lie prone with your arms straight
- Palms flat on the floor
- Hands shoulder-width apart (or wider)
- Hold your feet together or slightly spread (place your knees on the ground if necessary)
- Inhale and bend your elbows to bring your torso near the floor (keep your spine straight and stiff)
- Push yourself back to arms- extended position, exhaling as you complete the movement
Side-plank
Side Plank helps tighten and shrink your waistline. It works the deep abdominal muscles (obliques, transverse abdominus) that many abs exercises don’t reach.
