Steal Moments to Workout

Stuck in traffic? Turn something negative into a positive by fitting in a mini abs and butt workout.
Squeeze your butt, hold for 3 seconds, and relax. Do multiple reps and sets for a firm and tight butt.
Work your abs by sitting up straight, imagine pulling your belly button into your spine. Contract your abs and hold, do multiple reps or isometric contractions by holding that squeeze. You can also do mini upright crunches by pulling your rib cage down and doing a pelvic tilt by rolling your hips in toward your rib cage. Turn and rotate to hit your obliques (the side part of your abdominals).

Don't forget to exhale as you squeeze for a better contraction. Oh, and ladies, don't forget to kegel at the same time for both exercises. Kegel's are always a must to really work your transverse abdominals - the muscles that hold your belly in nice and flat. Oh, one more thing, make sure you keep your eyes on the road.
