If you want a flat, toned tummy like Vera’s, your search ends with her recommended core strengthening regimen.
In her view, developing a strong, defined core requires engaging all of the abdominal muscles. Will I be able to solve her riddles? Sure, I will spearhead the effort.
1. Plank Variations for Core Stability
Planks are the cornerstone of Vera’s program because they strengthen the back and shoulders while engaging the entire abdominal region. Start with a simple plank position; then, while holding for 30–60 seconds, straighten your body from head to toe.
Try side planks to work your oblues or plank jacks for an extra cardio burn to increase difficulty.
2. Bicycle Crunches for Target Obliques
After that, Vera enhances the strength of her side abs by doing bicycle crunches. Get into a right angle position with your knees while you rest on your back. After that, make a clockwise motion by touching your opposite knee to your elbows. Keep your core firm and your movements regulated as you do 15 to 20 reps on each side.
3. Leg raises for lower abs
Vera recommends lying leg lifts as a way to build lower abdominal strength. The first step is to lie flat on your back and extend your legs. Lower your legs so that your heels do not contact the floor after gently bringing them up to a straight angle with your body.
Doing these exercises on a regular basis will help you achieve a trimmer waist and stronger abs. Remember that having a strong core aids with more than just your looks—it also improves your balance, posture, and overall stability!
