Train your midsection while staying on your feet. This 30-minute standing abs and core workout with dumbbells skips crunches, sit-ups, and planks, and closes with a short standing cardio finisher. It is Day 3 of the 7 Day Azure Program. Do this workout in the Joy2Move app: https://www.joy2move.net/workouts/30-min-standing-abs-and-core-workout-with-dumbbells-cardio-finisher-1-week-standing-program The session is designed for home and follows a steady rhythm of 50 seconds of work with 10-second breaks. There is no talking, so you can simply follow along with me while a beep marks the transition between blocks. You will move through standing rotation and anti-rotation exercises that ask your obliques, upper abs, and lower abs to work together, with balance and stability challenges that keep the core engaged from start to finish.
