It’s Friday, so I will make this post short and sweet as you await the weekend.
Sometimes, I get stuck in a rut and just do the same typical abs, legs and arms weight lifting routines. So I scour Pinterest (follow my Fitness board here) until a new workout – that I can actually do – pops up.
That’s what the below image is (note: that’s not me) – but I did try it and LOVED it. You definitely feel it in your obliques after a few reps. This specific weight lifting routine is called “Teapots.” Who knew?!
Teapots are designed to work your obliques and help target/blast away those pesky love handles. The Bosu ball is completely optional, I didn’t use it at all. Basically, you stand with your legs apart and bend at your waist as far as you can without lifting your opposite foot off of the ground. You shouldn’t bend your supporting leg either.
Do 20 reps; 3-4 sets; use 15 – 20 lb. dumbbells. You’ll feel the burn alright. 🙂
