It's all about the obliques, which are your side abdominal muscles. That's what we're focusing on today. Definitely going to be a full core workout, but it's going to be quick and dirty. We have 10 moves. You do each move for 40 seconds of work, followed by 20 seconds of rest. You're just doing it one time through, no repeats. And I have the awesome Rachel. Hi. Who's going to be offering modifications so you can take it at your level today. For this core workout, all you're going to need is one dumbbell. If you want to add weight to the first four exercises, you can absolutely do this with no weight at all. But we're going to jump right in, no warm up, because we're just going to get after it. Today we're going to grab our weights and go for one of my favorite oblique exercises, the good old wood chop. You're going to be standing. The weight's gonna come outside the left knee and go over the right shoulder. Left knee, right shoulder. Really targeting those side abs, but definitely gonna feel your full core for this one. We go 40 seconds on, and it starts in three, two. Let's go. Left knee, right shoulder, left knee, right shoulder. Bend and drive. So you're bending the knees. Power through the heels, drive through the hips. See that weight overhead? Taking that weight across the midline is where those obliques come into play, right? Transferring the load from low to high. Hello, obliques. They're turn. There they are. Nice work. Come on. It's 40 seconds. You can only do each side once. Inhale, down, exhale, chop. Inhale, down, exhale, chop. You got this. Come on. 10 more seconds here. 10 more seconds. Yes, you can. Right here. Finish it. Nice final 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Nice work. Now you're gonna take that weight. I'm gonna put it right in the left hand. Let's go left. Left hand. Right toes are gonna face out. Left toes face forward. I'm gonna shoot this weight overhead. Totally optional. Rachel's gonna go without the weight windmill. I'm gonna slide my right hand down my right inner thigh, cinch myself back up with my obliques. We go in three, two. Let's go. Nice. Take it down and up. You do yoga. A little bit similar, like triangle pose. You're sliding down and then pulling yourself up. Really thinking about using my left obliques here to. To stand myself back up. Hinge and change. Hinge. Push those hips back. Drive up through those obliques. Nice. Weight is totally optional. If you got that weight, it's locked out right over that left shoulder. Eyes on your dumbbell. Pull yourself up using these obliques. Ten more seconds. Here we go. Drive up. Nice. Right here. Finish. 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. There it is. Nice. Same two moves. We're just going to repeat them. Other side so it's no repeats. You only do each once, right? You take that weight. Right knee, left shoulder. Right knee, left shoulder. You're going to chop it out. You got 10 seconds of rest. Roll those shoulders down and back. Put a soft bend in your knees. Take the weight. One head in each hand. We go in three, two. Let's go. Right knee, left shoulder, right knee, left shoulder. Nice. Toes stay facing me. Toes are square to me. Using those hips to drive that weight forward, crossing that midline. Core obliques. It's all turned on right here. Nice. We have four standing moves, and then we're going to hit the mat. Yes. Four standing moves, then we hit the mat. Come on. You got it. Inhale down. Exhale, chop. Inhale down. Exhale, chop. Let's go.

Dumbbell's going to go into my right hand this time. Right toes face to you. Left toes face that sidewall. Left hand is going to glide down my inner left thigh. Right hand is going to be overhead. Right shoulder, wrist all stacked on top of each other. We go in three, two. Let's go. Probably one of my favorite true targeting the oblique exercises is this move right here. I love a good windmill, and I definitely feel it in my obliques. Right? We're hitting right obliques right here. Standing me up. Cinching through those right obliques. Hinge, hinge, hinge. Get a nice little stretch for those hips, too. Immobility. Yeah, yeah. Hello, mobility. Taking those muscles and joints through a full range of motion with load. That's mobility, right?
