A killer exercise for a tight waist
I use this exercise in all strength programs for fighters. It develops rotational strength and power: it means it’s a very functional exercise to improve power punching for boxers.
Of course I don’t think you’ll need to punch anybody (at least not too often!), but this exercise is one of the best for the waistline: you work your entire mid section, abdominal and obliques.
You need to use a strong resistance band; grab the band with both hands and rotate your torso using a full range of motion. The core has to be in control of the movement, not the arms. Be solid on your legs: if you use a strong resistance, you have to keep the balance. Use a slow tempo, breath out when you rotate and tense your abs and obliques.
This exercise is also very effective to develop the core stability, which is critical in all sports.
Get your band and develop a strong and tight waist like a boxer.
