Warm-up (3–5 minutes)

• Gentle cat-cow and pelvic tilts to wake the core.
• Dynamic leg swings and torso twists to increase mobility.
• A short plank hold (20–30 seconds) to prime the muscles.

Core Circuit (repeat 2–3 rounds)

• Reverse crunches — 12–15 reps: focus on curling the pelvis toward the ribs.
• Bicycle crunches — 20 reps (10 each side): controlled tempo to hit obliques.
• Hanging or lying leg raises — 10–15 reps: keep hips down for lower-abs emphasis.
• Side plank — 30 seconds each side: maintain a straight line from head to heels.

Technique tips

• Breathe: exhale on the crunch or lift, inhale on the return.
• Move slowly and with control; momentum reduces effectiveness.
• If a move is too hard, reduce range of motion or perform a supported variation.

Progressions and scheduling

• Start with 3 sessions per week and add a day as you gain strength.
• Increase repetitions or add a third round once the circuit feels easy.
• For focused oblique and leg-raise progressions, follow this targeted challenge to build consistency leg raise and oblique crunch challenge.
