Road Workout Home • Upper Body • Lower Body
 
Crunches
-
Muscles involved: Abs
-
Start Position (picture 1): Lie down on a bench
(or on the floor) with your back flat. Affix the
resistance band to a stationary object and hold
the handles to your chest.
-
Finish Position (picture 2): Squeeze your abs
and crunch your shoulders off the ground while
maintaining a flat back. Have your eyes facing
the ceiling, to eliminate neck strain (do NOT
tuck your chin against your chest).
 
Side Bends
-
Muscles involved: Obliques
-
Start Position (picture 1): Stand with your feet
on the resistance band. Hold both the handles in
one hand. Bend laterally on the side you’re
holding the resistance band.
-
Finish Position (picture 2): Bend laterally to
the other side feeling the stretch in the
obliques. Switch sides after ample repetitions
have been performed.
