On the ninth day



Balance is very important as we get older and since you've been working
your core quite hard, it's time to change our focus a little.

Be sure to sing along!

On the ninth day of Christmas my trainer said to me

nine side lunges

eight side iso-abs

seven quad arm leg raises

six superman poses

five puuuush-ups

four sets (4/5) of bicycle crunches

three sets (3/10) of vertical leg crunches

two sets (2/12) of floor bridges

and a plank held for thirty seconds please!

Side Lunge to Balance

Start
1. Stand with your feet pointed straight ahead, placed shoulder-width
apart.
2. Lift your chest, tuck-in your chin and place your hands on your
hips.
Movement
3. Contract your glutes and lunge sideways with one leg.
4. Keep the lunge foot straight with the knee bent and directly in line
with the foot.
5. Your opposite leg should remain straight with the foot staying flat
on the ground.
6. Push off your bent leg into a balanced standing position.
7. Repeat eight times to the right, then eight times to the left.

Comet and Cupid (and Carol) commend your efforts!
