Winter has arrived; it’s cold outside and you don’t feel like going to the gym. Here are 5 easy exercises you can do at home to keep you in shape and warm up your body.

*Each exercise should be done 3 times for 15 reps.

The squat

Stand with your legs just a little wider than hip-width apart – you want to make sure your knees are wide and in line with your toes – and sit down, and then stand up again squeezing your glutes at the top.

The lunge

Stand with one leg back and you want to bend the back leg and go up and down holding the core with each rep.

The plank

A great core exercise. On a comfortable surface, go down on your elbows, straighten your legs and engage the abs and glutes and stay for 30 secs-1 minute.

The push-up

You can do it on your knees or toes. Keep the abs engaged and bend the elbows and go down with the chest to the floor. Then push up again through the hands and chest.

The bridge

Lie on your back, knees bent and feet firmly on the floor, then squeeze your glutes and bring the hips up and down.

Yoga has numerous benefits, both physical and mental, and straightening your core is one of them. These are some of the best and most effective poses to try if you want strong and sculpted abs.

Camel Pose

Opening your chest and pushing your shoulder blades together is obviously a great way to stretch the entire front part of your body. At the same time, this exercise is targeting your abs and strengthening your core.

Boat Pose

This pose is a bit more challenging than others, but the benefits it brings are unbelievable. While lifting your legs in the air, you’re engaging your abdomen and straightening your spine and neck at the same time.

Cobra Pose

Apart from being great for abs, cobra pose is good for straightening arms, chest and shoulders and for relieving back pain.

To make ends meet in 1999 as a full time yoga teacher, I taught 18 class a week and was flinging myself around New York City like a pinball on a scooter to get to classes. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Talk about hustling. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € My boyfriend at the time, who had a real job, paid for my yoga books so I could get certified with my second teacher training. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € To continue my education with my teacher, I once flew to AZ with no place to stay and despite the workshop being sold out. Why? Because he said I could try to get in if there were no-shows and that I could practice with him on the breaks. I trusted someone would let me share their bed, and they did. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Every day and at every session, I'd show up to see if I could get in. I succeeded sometimes, and when I didn't, I'd sit outside the window with a notebook listening in. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € I traveled all over the world assisting him for 14 years for no other compensation other than real time training and his mentorship. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Why am I sharing all this? β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Because becoming a great teacher of yoga (or anything for that matter) doesn't happen overnight. Those who have grown up with Google and GPS can too often go for "the peak", forgetting the importance of the process (aka humility) — and then get frustrated when they don't get the job, or when students don't come to class, or when no one buys their stuff. β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € Slow down and take it all in, trudge along, build up your wisdom coffers, and then start making a real difference. πŸ’ƒπŸ½ β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € How do you feel about instant gratification vs. enjoying the process and challenge of gradual, steady learning? What are your stories? β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β € πŸ“Έ@rickphotostudio #slowdown #perseverance #study #takeyourtime #yoga #yogateachertips #yogateacher #mastery #yogateachermastery #amyippoliti @90monkeys #90monkeys #cobrapose #cobra #bhujangasana

Side Plank Pose

Take your traditional plank pose to the next level by lifting one hand in the air and balancing your weight on the other hand. Although it requires a bit of skill and a lot of focus, this exercise is extremely effective.
