You’re now halfway through Svava Sigbertsdottir’s 30-day fat-burning home workout challenge! Day 16 doesn’t need any equipment, so let’s get started.
Today’s workout includes sumo squats, high planks into downward dog, and side planks – these moves are designed to make you sweat with a twist. Focus on controlling each movement to really feel the burn in your core, and build strength and endurance. If the exercises were easy, your core wouldn’t get much of a workout, says Svava. So it’s important that they challenge you to help achieve that toned body.
When you start to get tired, make sure you open up your chest and breathe deeply instead of collapsing forward. This will help you maintain better breathing.
You’ve got this, keep pushing through. The routine is simple: 10 minutes, five moves, two sets. Do each of the five moves for 40 seconds, followed by a 20-second rest. Then, repeat the set one more time.
Keep up the great work and continue with the challenge!
