Sculpt a Toned Stomach: Proven Resistance Band Core Workouts

As a seasoned fitness trainer, I've seen resistance bands transform core routines. They're portable, versatile, and incredibly effective for building a tight stomach.

Exercise 1
Sit with legs extended straight. Loop the band around your feet and grasp the ends. Engage your core and slowly roll back vertebra by vertebra until your shoulders reach the floor, keeping arms extended. Rise up controlled, flaring elbows outward and tapping your chest with your hands. Perform 10 reps.

Exercise 2
Lie on your back with legs straight. Secure the band around your feet, holding ends with arms extended. Tighten abs and lift legs to a 45° angle. Pump arms up and down rhythmically. Hold for 50 seconds.
