🔥 My Go-To Core & Ab Routine That’s Shaped My Waistline
Over the past few months, I’ve been consistent and intentional about building a strong, defined core — not just for looks, but for strength, balance, and confidence. These are my go-to ab and core workouts that have completely transformed my midsection and helped me feel stronger in every lift and movement.
🏋️ Medicine Ball Kneeling Slams
This move gets your heart rate up while targeting your abs, shoulders, and back. I love adding this in as a power finisher — it builds explosive strength and helps burn stubborn belly fat.
🔗 Super-Band Crunches
A simple yet killer movement for deep core activation. The resistance from the band keeps constant tension on your abs, forcing them to engage through the entire movement.
💪 Cable Kneeling Crunch
My #1 core exercise!
If there’s one movement that’s transformed my core the most, it’s definitely cable kneeling crunches. When done right — with controlled form and heavy enough weight to feel that deep contraction — this exercise sculpts the upper and lower abs while helping define your waistline. It’s been a total game-changer for me in just a couple of months.
🥇 Plate Russian Twist
A classic with a twist (literally). I hold a weight plate and rotate slowly to each side, focusing on squeezing my obliques. It’s perfect for toning the sides of the waist while improving rotational core strength.
🧘Shoulder Tap Planks
To finish off, I always include shoulder tap planks for stability and endurance. This move forces your abs to stay tight while controlling side-to-side movement — great for improving balance and posture.
💥 Final Thoughts
This core circuit has become my non-negotiable. I perform it 3–4 times a week, mixing up reps and weights to keep my muscles challenged. The key isn’t just doing the exercises — it’s about feeling each rep, staying consistent, and pushing yourself a little harder every session.
Stay tuned — I’ll be sharing my favorite ab and core finisher workouts next week!
