Steve Madden's Summer 2012 Lookbook

Workout Wednesday

The Reverse Plank

Lay down on your back and, keeping your abs tight, lift your feet and legs a few inches off of the floor. Hold for four seconds, then do 10 to 15 reps.

The Parachute

Lay down on your back, with your hands behind your head and your legs spread apart. Crunch your knees and elbows together, hold, and squeeze your abs. Return back to your starting position, and do eight to 10 reps.

 

The Twisting Scissor

Start on your back, and raise one leg in a vertical upright position while the other lays straight on the floor. Crunch your abs while twisting your torso to bring your left elbow towards your right lifted leg. Lower it down, and switch legs. Do 10 to 15 reps

The Spider Donkey Plank

Start in a forearm plank position, and lift your right leg up so that it's in line with your spine (see left). Pull your right knee toward your right tricep. Hold the position for a beat and then kick your leg up and back like a donkey. Switch legs, and do 10 to 15 reps on each side.

The Side Plank Kick

Lay down on your side with straight legs, and place all of your weight on your forearm. Raise your hips away from the floor and kick your top leg as high as you can. Do 10 to 15 reps on each side.

MODERATE INTENSITY MINUTE: V SIT-UPS

How to do it: Sit with your feet lifted off the floor, knees bent into your chest, hands clasped behind your head. Lean back and extend both legs straight out, touching your back to the floor but keeping your head and shoulders off the ground. Sit back up and return to your start position. That's one rep. Repeat as many times as you can in a row for one minute.

Tip: Be sure to brace your abs during this entire move and try not to use momentum to come up and down. If it’s too tough to do with the legs extended, keep your knees bent as you lower and sit up.
