Effective Exercises you’ve never seen before

If you workout at a gym frequently maybe you think there’s not an exercise you haven’t seen before. Today I’m going to show you 3 exercises that are as effective as they are unique.

1. Russian Twist- Forget crunches, this exercise were developed for Russian shot putters to develop powerful core muscles.

2. Bulgarian Split squats- This was developed by Bulgarian strength coaches which have some of the strongest athletes in the world. This is the ultimate “Glute” exercise.

3. Thunderbolts- A learned this exercise from former University of Tulsa Strength coach, Tom Cross. It will build a powerful and explosive core.

Question from viewers:

Lecia,
When I do crunches on the exercise ball, say 2 sets of 20, by the 15 crunch my lower back starts to hurt even though I try to push it into the ball. What exercises strengthens my abs and back at the same time.


Jordan Bond
My abs are pretty defined in the front, but how do I get the definition on my sides?
