Want the best results from your workout? Vary your workouts by changing exercises. Variety challenges your muscles and forces them to change! And if you want a beautiful, strong and toned midsection, doing a variety of exercises is what will get you there.

I have created videos of some of my favorite core exercises videos on my YouTube channel. And I have listed links to the core exercise videos below.

All the exercises I have listed here won’t put excessive compressive forces on your spine’s discs. Some core exercises can hurt your back.  See this blog for why.  Avoid some of the popular core exercises that do like the Crocodile, Scissors, The Teaser, Reverse Curl and Lift. I discuss exercises to be cautious of here.

Mix and match the exercises, select 3-5 of these exercises per workout and do 3 sets of 10 reps each 3 times a week. Give your core a 48 hour rest in between workouts.

To get the best results from your weight training routine, diversify your workouts by performing different exercises. If you work out regularly, it’s easy to get into the habit of doing the same exercises every time. But, when you perform the same exercises repeatedly, your body adapts to this in as little as six to eight weeks. If you don’t change up your routine, your fitness level will plateau.
Avoid a plateau by visiting my YouTube channel, watch the videos and incorporate exercises recommended by a master personal trainer into your routine.
