Grace: Hey everybody, it's Grace and I'm getting ready to do my ab workout.
This thing that I was demonstrating before is not going to be of any help to me, so I'm
going to show you what I'm going to do with my myosource bands.
I'm going to buckle up first, of course, click.
Put them in place.
I'm going to put my feet this far apart and put my head down, brace my hands on the mat
and just lift my hips.
What this is doing is... the bands are really engaging my core muscles.
This movement even without the bands is a pretty good workout, but with the bands tightens
all these muscles all through here.
It's a great, great workout for your stomach, if you want that flat tummy.
I'm going to do another similar workout with my feet together this time, but my knees are
going to be just placed a little bit apart.
This I feel more through my butt and my [laughter] legs, my back legs through here.
I can also feel it al through here, definitely in my lower abs, engaging the...
Before I found the myosource bands I was a crunchoholic.
I did crunches everyday and it was really starting to hurt my back, my backbone.
Crunches were working against me, not for me.
I wasn't seeing any results and I was doing hundred and hundreds, and I guess, I was just
doing them wrong or they don't work.
I'm going to do another workout with the bands that really engages your core muscles.
What I do is just cross this leg over here and lift.
Instead of fighting against your back, your back is actually supporting you.
It feels...
you really do feel that it's working your core through your abs.
We're going to do a switch, make sure it's balanced, really engages your stomach muscles.
That's a really simple, easy way to target your core and not kill your back.
What I'm about to do is a variation of the butt lift.
You just raise one of your legs up like this and than do this, engages your stomach, your
legs [laughter] it's hard.
This one, I like to call the screwdriver because it looks kind of like the... when you're in
this formation right here the screwdriver that you jump into the pool.
This leg up here makes it easier on your back.
I sometimes have lower back pain and this is a way to do it that makes it a little bit
easier.
It engages your core, you feel it through your leg, it's a really good workout.
This one is pretty easy, just cross your leg over like this.
Put your head up like this and just push your leg down.
This engages your abs, it's just a good way to target your lower and your outer abs.
