Love yourself: it is with this slogan Christina Ciabotto presents us with one of his workouts to keep fit. On the other hand, it is not enough to have physicist slender by nature, it also needs to be worked on, especially with regard to toning. this is a series light exercises, but they involve the whole body, ideal for training the arms, abs, legs and buttocks, without forgetting the back, and then obviously finishing with the stretching necessary to maintain the elasticity of our muscles and prevent any contractures. For this workout, we need a mat, two fairly heavy dumbbells, and a yoga ball.
Full body workout by Christina Ciabotto
If you are looking for an exercise regimen that does not leave any part of our body behind, but helps to improve balance and build strength, Chiabotto is very interesting. It starts with some squat while holding a yoga ball in your hands, straightening your arms: This will force us to keep our back as straight as possible and therefore properly squat down, i.e. drop perpendicularly with both feet completely on the ground and knees out, “settling” at the hips. This is one of the basic exercises for any kind of physical activity and it is important to perform it correctly so as not to damage your back. If you still can’t keep your back straight, knees apart or your heels up, it’s more than a matter of strength, it’s a matter of mobility that needs to be trained with patience and never neglected: help yourself by putting 2-3 cm of insteps under your heelsthey will support you in ankle movement.
We then see Christina using a yoga ball to release tension from her back by lying on it on her stomach to relax her muscles. Then go to deadlift with dumbbells, more suitable than kettlebells for doing your type of exercise. In fact, after the actual deadlift, raise your arms directly above your head. For best performance, start with your feet slightly apart with the kettlebells on the ground, and bend over to pick them up. keep your back in a neutral position (no hump), keeping the heels well on the ground. knees should not never step on your toes. Let’s help ourselves by tensing our glutes and abs to keep ourselves in the right position. Once you have picked up the dumbbells, return to an upright position, keeping them as close to your body as possible. Standing up, we turn our hands outward and always, passing close to the body, raise our hands up.
Glute exercises not to be missed: get on all fours and lift one leg at a time, bent at 90°, bouncing up and down, always keeping your hips on the floor: a very effective bodyweight exercise as it engages all the muscles and requires control and balance. In the end, of course full body stretchA: Christina shows us, in particular, one for the neck and neck. The ideal is to repeat each exercise 15 times, for a total of four times.
