Hi, everyone, it's Karena and Katrina from Tone It Up.
And today, we have a very special guest, Chriselle Lim, from the channel, Chriselle Lim.
She's a fashionista and style expert.
And we love your videos, and we've been friends with her for a long time, so this is really
cool.
Thank you, so much, for having me.
I'm so excited to be here with you guys, because I am ready to get beach-ready, bikini-ready,
and I just need to learn how to just tone up my whole body, from top to bottom, with
a few simple moves.
I think we have something.
Yeah?
Alright.
Let's get started.
Alright, ladies, you ready to get goin'?
I am.
Okay, the first moves is a Curtsy Lunge With a Side Slimmer.
So we'll start with our feet, hip distance apart, step your right foot behind you and
come into a curtsy lunge.
Good.
Like this?
And then, come back up and bring that leg out.
Perfect.
And behind and come back out.
One thing to remember is not to let your knee go out past your toes.
You wanna be very safe.
So right behind it?
Yes, there you go.
So this move is working your glutes.
There you go.
The sides of your thighs.
Good.
A lot of people ask us how you work that area out.
Good, your abs are staying tight.
And if you look at Katrina, she's doing a more advanced move and lifting her leg up
off the ground.
It takes a lot of balance.
I bet her core is really engaged.
If I came over and punched her, it be rock solid.
I feel it.
It's burning.
There you go.
Good, one more, and then we'll do the other side.
Yeah.
Good.
You're working your really big muscle groups here.
Getting your heart rate up a little now.
Beautiful.
And if you wanna do it a home, you can add some hand weights and do a bicep roll.
Or shoulder raise.
I don't know if I'm ready for that.
Alright, one more.
Good job!
Whew!
Second move, Bikini Walkout, so you're ready to walkout on the beach in your bikini.
You're going to start at the end of your mat.
Here?
And you're gonna bend down, legs straight, and inch your way down, all the way down into
a plank.
There you go, right there.
And you're gonna drop to your knees.
And then do a push up, tucking your elbows into your sides.
There you go.
…Yes!
And now, straighten your legs, knees off the ground and then inch your way back up.
You guys, this is hard.
This is really fun with Chriselle here today.
And then, when you come up, make sure you squeeze that booty.
Alright, now we're gonna go back down.
So bend down.
Inch your way out.
Drop to your knees.
Kiss those elbows into your waistline.
You got it!
You build up to and then walk all the way back up.
Wait, so I, like…
Oh, there you go.
There you go.
You guys, I'm sorry, I'm not very good at this.
No, you're amazing.
Everyone builds up to something, right?
So you go back down, and I'll show you a modification, too, if you wanna do this at home.
So when you stay in that plank, so stay right there, okay.
Karena's gonna do the push-up on her knees.
There you go.
Now, Chriselle, I want you to do a tummy tuck: Bring one knee up to your elbow.
So bring…
Which one?
Lift up either knee.
This one?
Yep, and then bring it up to your elbow.
Now this one works your abs.
Now bring it back and do the other leg.
Oh yeah, I like this one.
Yeah, and then now you can walk back up.
So you got two choices.
It's amazing.
Now squeeze your booty on the way back up.
Alright, let's do one more like that, and we're gonna do the tummy tuck this time too.
So you can alternate doing the the push-up, the tummy tuck.
Tummy tuck, for me.
Yep, so knee up to your elbow.
Oh yeah, we're goin' … for ya.
Good.
And then you come back up.
This actually works everything, especially the booty, on the way back.
So you feel that all over, right?
I do.
So everyone asks us: An all over move that works everything– there it is.
It seriously worked out my whole body, I feel like.
Yeah, there you go.
And if you build up to doing like 5 and then 10 and then mixing in those tummy tucks for
the abs.
Alright, third move is that Inner Thigh Toner for the bikini.
So we're gonna lay on our side.
I'm gonna watch her first.
Okay.
And you cross over that top leg.
And then you lift up that bottom leg, working the inner thigh.
It's a small movement, but it gets that small muscle that you wanna work on the inner thigh.
Got it.
You wanna give it a whirl?
I do.
Alright, let's do this.
Okay, so.
Yep, and lift up that bottom leg.
Now I love what you said when we shot our video to together, which we'll show you at
the end of the video that we shot with Chriselle.
She said: Beauty and everything, starts from the inside.
So once you feel confident and good on the inside, then it comes out and shines on the
outside.
I love that.
It's very true, because I'm feeling very good right now, already.
Keep going Karena.
Good, few more.
Good, alright, now you got two sides to your body, so you gotta do the other side.
So flip around, cross over that top leg.
There you go.
Yep, and you can do down onto your…
You turn into a pretzel when you do this.
And then lift up that bottom leg.
Good, so it starts burning.
The lactic acid actually builds up in that muscle --and you just push through-- and that's
when you know change is happening.
Change is uncomfortable, so just when you're uncomfortable, do a couple more reps.
I'm getting there.
You got it.
3, 2 and 1.
Awesome.
Oh my gosh, I feel the burn.
It feels good.
Alright, now, are you ready to work your abs?
That's my favorite part to work out, so, I am.
Alright, perfect.
Let's come down onto the mat.
This is called the Beach Cruiser Crunch.
So if you wanna watch Katrina here, first: She's putting her hands behind her head, lightly
resting her head there.
Her legs are straight, and she's criss crossing and lifting them up.
But her heels never actually touch the ground.
Got it.
So keep them straight, instead of bending them?
Yes, straight.
Alright, ready, girls?
So you'll wanna press your lower back into the ground and keep it there.
And then, hands behind your head.
Straight legs.
Raise up just a little.
Shoulder blades off the ground.
And alternate.
There you go, there you go.
And kinda do a little twist, opposite elbow to knee.
Yes.
Perfect.
Whew, oh my god.
This is a great move for you obliques, your lower abs.
Remembering to breathe.
I bet this is what's gonna get me a flat stomach this summer.
Yes, toned and tight.
And fabulous.
Fabulous, I like that word.
Alright, a few more.
Awesome job.
How does it feel?
Oh, am I done?
Yes, I'll help you up.
Yay!
Alright, guys.
Thank you, so much, for having me, I had a blast today.
And I already feel really fit.
I am gonna do this workout at home, so I get bikini-ready for the summer.
