BUTTERFLY SIT-UP
MUSCLE GROUPS WORKED
Abs
●Lie face up on a mat with the
soles of your feet together
and knees bent out to sides.
Reach your arms overhead –
this is your starting position.
●Now, using your core, roll
your body up until you are
sitting upright, then reach
forward to touch your toes.
●Slowly lower yourself back
down to the starting
position and repeat.

PLANK WITH
SHOULDER TAPS
MUSCLE GROUPS WORKED
Abs, Obliques, Pecs
and Triceps
● Start by placing your hands
slightly wider than shoulder-
width apart and your feet a little
wider than hip-width apart.
● Squeeze your shoulder
blades together and keep
your hips in good alignment
(not raised up to the ceiling
or sagging down to the floor).
● With your hips and shoulders
moving as little as possible,
lift your right hand off the
floor and tap your left shoulder.
● Return your right hand to its
starting position and do the same
with the left hand. That’s one rep.
