No more sweating on machines. By using the only weight of his body, one gets firm all the way. Here are 5 exercises to do where you want, when you want .
Exercise 1: "the board" standing for deep toning
Ideal before starting the workout, this exercise tones the deep muscles that keep us standing. Balancing on the right leg, left leg horizontally, one tilts forward, arm along the body, head down, back straight. We keep the position 1 min, then release and change leg (4 times on each side).
Exercise 2: "the acrobat" for a reinforced back
Lying under a table, one grabs the edge with the hands apart, knees bent at 90 °. The buttocks are raised by contracting the whole body. We pull on the arms to get closer to the furniture and we go down slowly (6 times.) A good exercise to strengthen his back without lifting tons!
Exercise 3: "the wrestler" for sculpted buttocks
Standing with your back straight, you advance one leg forward and push the other backwards. We descend vertically by tilting the weight of the body on the front leg, which forms a right angle. The knee does not extend beyond the tip of the foot. Repeat the movement 5 times for each leg to tone your buttocks .
Exercise 4: "the climber" for concrete abs
4-legged, resting on outstretched arms, hands in shoulder alignment and knees slightly bent. We take off the feet from the ground, one after the other, as if to climb a wall (5 min).
Exercise 5: "the skater" for tapered thighs
Standing, feet apart, knees bent, one passes the left leg behind the right like a skater by making a small jump without the left foot touching the ground. All the weight of the body is transferred to the right leg. Then we chained on the other leg (6 times). With you tapered thighs !
