Fitness Challenge Day 16

The Exercise:  Boat Pose

Boat Pose is a yoga pose to help strengthen your core.   Even if you have a strong core, I promise you this one is going to be challenging.  Much more challenging than a plank.

How to Do it:



The Challenge:

Do a few warm up stretches, like cat and cow (on your hands and knees alternately arch and round your back,  looking like an angry cat or a sway backed cow).

Find a version of boat post that works for you by watching the video.  You may not be able to do full boat pose and a variation may be necessary. 

Try holding your version of boat pose for a full 60 sec

Repeat 3 times.

Challenge met!
