Want To Mix Up Your Workout? Don't Move A Muscle
Move: Static lunge Even without weight, a static lunge can burn and shape your butt, thighs and calves while reducing stress on your knees. And it will crush your core, Frisch says. "To keep the position stable and solid, squeeze your abs as hard as you can," he says. "My clients feel it more in their abs than they do even in a plank." To do the static lunge, take a large step forward and descend into the deepest position of the lunge you can hold -- ideally, your knees will form two 90-degree angles. Hold this position for 30 seconds on each side, then switch sides. Work this hold into your workout between sets of an upper-body exercise.
