What better time to start getting into shape than now? You have a whole six months to work on that summer body you always wanted and why not start your New Year's Resolution early? It doesn't matter if you have never been to the gym or if you go every day, these workouts can easily fit into the lives of anyone from the busy worker to the laziest of Netflix-and-chillers. You will only thank yourself later because you have nothing to lose (except, maybe those love handles).
The ABS-olutely Amazing Shower Workout
What is more productive than working out and showering at the same time? This workout is easy enough to do in the shower or anywhere else, and leaves you with tighter abs that will thank you later!
Standing Crunch
Place your feet about shoulder length apart, bend your knees, and position your hands behind your head as if you were to do crunches. Bend forward targeting your abs until your back is flat, then return to starting position.
Standing Oblique Crunch
Stand with your feet shoulder length apart, a little bend in your knees, and hands at your side while you engage your core. As you bend to the side reach your hand to your foot (do not touch your foot) and then return to center and repeat on the other side. As you do this exercise keep a flat back. You do not need weights for this exercise.
Standing Twist
Stand up straight, feet shoulder-width apart. Instead of weights, you can just hold your hands out in front of you. Engage your core as you twist your trunk to one side, then return to center and repeat on the other side.
Standing Cross Body Crunch
Stand with legs shoulder width apart, with a slight bend in your knees. Put your hands behind your head as you would for a normal lying down crunch. Engage your core as you lift one knee to the opposite elbow, then return to starting position and repeat on the opposite side.
