DAY 2: Standing Abs Workout | Gentle Core & Waist Strength | 21-Day Abs Challenge

Welcome to Day 2 of our 21-Day Abs & Core Challenge! Today we’re taking our core workout off the mat and onto our feet with a gentle but effective standing abs workout. Standing core exercises are a great way to train your abdominal muscles while also working your hips, legs, balance, posture, and overall stability. We’ll begin with leg gliding, then add a gentle cat-cow movement to connect your breath with your core. From there, we’ll add rotations to the leg glides to challenge your obliques and bring more movement into the waist. We’ll also work through sumo squats with abdominal engagement, combining lower-body strength with core activation. We’ll repeat the sequence on the other side and finish with an isometric chair pose, challenging your core, legs, and endurance while keeping the body stable. This is a beginner-friendly standing abs workout with controlled, low-impact movements, making it a great option if you’re new to core training or prefer not to get down on the floor. It can also be a gentle way to reconnect with your core after pregnancy, as long as these movements feel appropriate for your stage of postpartum recovery. Focus on your breathing, keep your movements slow and controlled, and think about creating strength through your entire center—not just your six-pack muscles. Let’s build a strong, stable core—one workout at a time! 00:30 leg gliding 01:47 leg gliding with cat/cow 03:31 gliding with rotations 04:25 sumo squats with abs 06:03 leg gliding, left 07:27 leg gliding with cat/cow, left 08:57 gliding with rotations, left 10:22 sumo squats with abs 11:39 isometric chair pose #AbsWorkout #CoreWorkout #CoreStrength #AbWorkoutForWomen #DeepCore #TransverseAbdominis #TVAWorkout #StandingAbs #StandingAbsWorkout #BeginnerAbsWorkout #LowImpactWorkout #PostpartumCore #PostpartumWorkout #21DayChallenge #strongcoreworkout
