My core one year ago vs. NOW. 😮‍💨💪🏼 42 lbs down, but one of my favorite parts of this journey? My core is the STRONGEST it’s ever been POST BABY. These are 6 weighted core exercises I do regularly using a pair of 10 lb dumbbells. But here’s what I want you to know 👇🏼 These exercises alone did NOT create the transformation you see. Nutrition played a HUGE role, along with consistent strength training, daily movement, and progressively getting stronger. You can’t spot-reduce fat with core exercises, but you CAN build a stronger core while working toward your overall fitness goals. Want to try these? Here’s how: ✔️ Pick 3-4 moves from this video. ✔️ Complete 3-4 rounds. ✔️ DON’T automatically grab 10 lb dumbbells because that’s what I’m using! Choose a weight that challenges YOU while allowing you to maintain good form. That might mean starting with bodyweight or lighter dumbbells. ✔️ Slow down! Focus on keeping your core engaged, controlling each rep, and avoiding momentum. And remember, you don’t have to do everything perfectly to make progress. You just have to keep showing up. Save these 6 moves for your next core workout! 🫡 These types of exercises are regularly programmed inside my Movement With Julie weekly dumbbell workouts so you can rest assured you’re training properly! #coreworkout #abs #core #homeworkout - @movementwithjulie
