Beach season is approaching!!  Time to flatten that stomach, not just for looks, but also for injury prevention.  The core musculatures function is to RESIST rotation, flexion, and extension.  Therefore, we need to train it that way!  Here is a sample circuit you can try, it targets the midsection the "correct" way"

Plank (for as long as you can hold correct posture)

directly into

Right Side Plank (for as long you can hold correct posture)

directly into

Plank (for as long as you can hold correct posture)

directly into

Left Side Plank (for as long as you can hold correct posture)

Rest 2-3 minutes between circuits.  Shoot to complete the full circuit 3-4 times!  Good luck in your quest for a strong, beach ready core!
