@movementwithjulie: POV: You hate sit-ups, so you train your core standing up. 👏🏼 Here are 5 standing dumbbell core exercises you can do at home without getting on the floor. And if you think the overhead hold is the easy part… wait until you lift that knee. 😮💨 Aim for 12–16 controlled reps of each move. A few things I want you to focus on: ✔️ Start lighter than you think. The last few reps should challenge you, but you shouldn’t have to lean back or swing the weights to finish. ✔️ On the knee drives, stay tall and bring your knee only as high as you can without shifting side to side. Set your foot down gently before the next rep. ✔️ On the standing twists, keep the dumbbells close to your chest and control the turn in both directions. Save this for your next at-home core workout! These are the kinds of moves I regularly program into Cardio & Core day inside my Movement With Julie dumbbell-only weekly workout plan, so you don’t have to piece together a routine from your saved videos. 😉 #core #abs #absworkout #homeworkout
