This is the 5-move ab routine women over 40 need to build deep core strength without a single crunch
This quick home workout targets the muscles that crunches and sit-ups often miss.
At age 40, many people start to question their fitness capabilities and think that getting older means losing strength. However, fitness coach Amy-Jo Simpson, after reaching 45, found that building a strong core is the key to staying strong in one's 40s. She recommends ditching traditional crunches and focusing on exercises that target deep core muscles.
The workout consists of five exercises performed in a circuit without rest between moves, followed by a 60-second rest and repeating twice more. Aim to do this routine four times a week, either alone or at the end of a strength or cardio session. Remember, exercise combined with a nutritious, high-protein diet promotes muscle growth and recovery. What is deep core training, and why should you be doing it?
