Fitness expert talks about daily workout to keep fit

Fitness expert Gretchen Thomas talked about the daily workout to keep fit. Her words leads the portal Eat This, Not That.

The specialist advised to perform an exercise called Dead Bugs. To do this, lie on your back, stretch your arms up above your chest, and bend your knees and raise your legs so that your shins are parallel to the floor. “Put your right hand behind your head and at the same time stretch your left leg. Return to the starting position, then repeat the movement on the opposite side, ”Thomas explained.

The trainer also recommended doing a glute bridge and knee plank for 20-30 seconds. To do this, you need to get on all fours, then raise your knees a couple of centimeters from the floor with an emphasis on your hands and on your toes and linger in this position.

Another effective exercise, according to Thomas, is the Superman move. “Lie on your stomach, stretch your arms and legs, then lift your legs, arms and chest off the floor, contracting your back muscles. It is important that you raise the thoracic region, and not the head and neck, ”the specialist noted.

To complete the workout, Thomas advised the Bird Dog exercise, the starting position is a plank on your knees. “Extend your right arm forward and your left leg behind your back, keeping your neck and back in a neutral position. Hold this position for a moment, then repeat on the opposite side,” said Thomas. She added that each exercise in this complex must be done in three sets of ten repetitions.
