Move of the month

Wear that sleeveless top with confidence. Try this move to sculpt sleek and sexy shoulders.

Lateral Side Raise with Resistance Bands
Muscles worked: shoulders

Start

  • Stand as tall as you can with one foot in front of the other for added stability
  • Turn your arms so that your palms are facing downward and bend your elbows slightly

Finish

  • While keeping the bend in your elbows, raise your arms out to your sides so they are at shoulder level. A visual cue would be to make sure that you form a T with your arms out to your sides.
  • Hold the pose at the top of the movement for about 1-2 seconds and then lower your arms to the starting point.
  • Remember to breath, keep your core tight, and relax the shoulder while performing the movement

Move of the Month

Side Bridge
Targets-The Core (Abs, hips and back)

Lie on your side with your elbow and forearm directly under your shoulder to hold yourself up. Tighten your core and lift your hips until your body forms a straight line and support your body weight with your forearm and feet. Your feet can either be stacked one on top of the other or crossed. Pull in your abs (while keeping a continuous breathing pattern) and try to stay in this position for 10-30 seconds. Repeat on other side and do 1-2 repetitions on each side.
