Best Waist Trimming Exercises

In this article I want to share with you some of the best waist trimming exercises that you can do to tone and trim your waistline and get that beautiful firm shape you've always wanted.

All these exercises target and tone the waist. However, none of these will deliver real results unless you also follow a healthy and sensible diet plan to make sure you eat right. So, eat right and do the following exercises to get a toned waist...

1. Standing sideways bend - Stand up straight with your feet slightly apart. Place one hand on your hip and keep the other arm straight and by your side. You may choose to hold a dumbbell in this hand for greater intensity.

To do the exercise, bend sideways to the side of the stretched out arm. Don't tilt or move your hips and keep your neck and head in a straight line to your torso. Feel the stimulation in your waist and rise back to the starting position.

2. Russian Twist - This exercise requires a stability ball to perform. You lie back on the stability ball but keep both feet planted on the ground slightly apart from each other. Stretch out your arms directly in front of you straight above your chest. To do the exercise, twist your upper body to the side (without lifting your feet from the floor) until the side of your body is touching the ball and you're facing directly to the side. Do this movement slowly to keep your stability on the ball.

The Russian Twist is one of the best waist trimming exercises there is but it's also one of the most challenging ones. This is an exercise that may take some practice on your part to perfect, so be aware of it.

3. Windshield wipers exercise - To do this exercise you need to lie on the floor or on a mat. Keep your upper body fully on the ground and lift both legs straight in the air. Place your hands by the sides of your body with your palms flat on the floor to provide support and stability. Let both legs fall directly to one side and halt their movement before they touch the floor. Use your waist muscles to control your legs and bring them back to the starting position.

Do these 3 waist toning exercises and you will get excellent results.
