But I decided to just settle for a Kettlebells routine.

South Beach Steve got in the Tabata suggest...Ahhhh! South Beach Steve got in the Tabata suggestion first. Ta.ba.ta. It hurts. So...hmmm, ok. I have a little exercise I used to do back in the day when I was a hard-core skier on my high-school ski team. It's not hard to learn, but it takes a few times to get it right. <br /><br />Start off by lying on your back, like you are going to do a regular crunch. Put your hands behind your head to support it, but be sure not to pull your chin to your chest. Keep your chin pointed up toward the ceiling. With your shoulders/head relaxed on the floor (hands behind head to minimize cheating), lift your legs so they are pointed at the ceiling (you don't have to point your toes, just hold legs extended, soles facing the ceiling). Cross your ankles. That helps keep your legs right over your hips, don't let them sway forward or backward. Slowly, keeping your head on the ground, chin pointing up, lift your hips up off the floor, basically making a gentle thrust with the soles of your feet toward the ceiling. You are using your stomach muscles to lift your hips and gently push your legs toward the ceiling (and lift your hips off the ground). Hips don't need to go high -- can be half an inch, or an inch, whatever is comfy. <br /><br />When you get that part worked out, you want to combine that with an upper body crunch. <br /><br />So, at the same time you lift your hips and slowly thrust heels (soles) to ceiling, also try to lift your shoulders slightly off the ground. Again, doesn't need to be high. Make sure you do not pull your head/neck with your hands, and keep your chin pointed toward ceiling. <br /><br />Done correctly, you are essentially using all your tummy muscles to do two crunches at once -- one that lifts shoulders, the other your hips. Once you've done as many as you want with your ankles crossed one way, cross them the other way and do another set. <br /><br />If I of other tortures, I'll be back. You realize, of course, I'm going to be suggesting all the really hard-care exercises I want to do but am too scared to try!Call Me Ishmaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10123967336847481576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952747416511449684.post-6355497374197648882010-02-03T04:58:06.012-08:002010-02-03T04:58:06.012-08:00Two words:
