Overview

The bottoms up exercise is a core exercise that targets the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis or six-pack muscles. It is performed by lying on the floor with your knees bent and your feet flat on the ground. You then hold a weight plate or dumbbell directly above your head with your arms extended. Keeping your back flat on the floor, you then slowly lower the weight plate or dumbbell down towards your shins, then back up to the starting position. This exercise can be performed for a set number of repetitions or for a set period of time.

Variations

Variations of fitness exercises refer to different ways of performing a specific exercise or movement to target various muscle groups, intensities, or goals. These variations aim to challenge the body differently, prevent plateaus, and cater to individuals with varying fitness levels.

Alternatives

These alternative exercises can be used as substitutes when the original exercise is unavailable or challenging to perform due to various reasons such as equipment limitations, injuries, or personal preferences.
