  • Stand Up for a Strong Core
    By The FIRM Master Instructor Susan Barnes
     
    You don’t have to lay on the floor to work your core! Do this standing core workout routine by itself after a short warm up, or add it to the end of another workout to cool down and work your core at the same time. Want more of a challenge? Intermediate and advanced exercisers can add a set of 3-, 5-, or 8-pound dumbbells.
     
    Be sure to stretch when you’re done — a foam roller is especially great after a tough abs session!

    Are your yoga pants yawn-inducing? Is your sports bra spent? If the last time you bought new exercise apparel the song “Let’s Get Physical” was playing on a radio, it’s time for an intervention.

  • Try the Mermaid Stretch For Your Core!
    The Pilates mermaid side stretch lengthens and opens the side body. This variation on one knee makes it a more intense stretch and adds a bit of a workout for the obliques.
