How To Strengthen The Quads and Hip Flexors

How To Strengthen The Quads & Hip Flexors

When you hear the words “the core” the abdominal muscles are usually the first thing that will come to a person’s mind. While the abs are certainly a major player when it comes to supporting the trunk, there are other muscles that play an important role as well. One of these muscle groups is the hip flexors.

In today’s video I share a simple exercise that helps strengthen the quads and hip flexors. Strong hip flexors help keep your pelvis stable and your spine in proper alignment. Proper alignment helps you maintain good posture which will result in a leaner look. One of the easiest ways to look like you’ve lost a few pounds is to simply stand up straight!

I recommend you take a moment to watch the video and save it for future reference. The exercise doesn’t require any equipment so you can perform it almost anywhere which makes it really easy to fit into a busy day.

Here’s to a healthy, happy, and super fit week!

One of my favorite exercises for your core

Today we are hanging out at my house! I’m sharing a short video with one of my all-time favorite exercises that helps tone and strengthen the glutes and abs. It’s called the bridge. You may be familiar with “bridging”, however, I add a little twist to it in the video.

This exercise can be used at home, at the gym, or even when traveling. And, it’s something you can do every day. As a matter fact, it’s part of my daily routine.

Take a few minutes to watch it and if you think a friend might like to see it, please feel free to share.

To your health and fitness!
