PERFORM 3 CIRCUITS
Nothing’s more boring (and pointless) than lying on your back doing endless crunches in the hopes of achieving a solid 6-pack.
This Core Circuit workout, featuring five SandBell exercises all performed standing, will train the muscles of midsection and core way better than any sit-up or crunch ever can.
