Floor-Based and Standing Abs

Working your abdominal muscles usually means getting down on the floor. Integrating standing ab exercises to your routine can bring strong results. Changing the positions in which you perform ab exercises relieves boredom. By changing up your routine, you can activate different muscles and how they work. The balance needed for standing ab exercises can improve standing and help to avoid neck discomfort.

Your Move | Demonstrated by Lee Gunter

STANDING OBLIQUE Crunches Target obliques (muscles that run along sides of the core).

•Stand tall with feet shoulder-width apart, arms at your sides.

•Contract abdominals.

•Place left hand on back of head as you would a floor crunch and right hand at sides, palms facing you.

•Keeping back straight and moving from waist, slowly lower torso toward the right side as far as you can go.

•Return to starting position, repeating 8 times.

•Repeat pattern on opposite side.

Tip: Avoid rounding shoulders.

SQUAT WITH FRONTAL RAISE Fully engages your core and strengthens shoulder muscles.

•Stand tall with feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

•Have both hands hold one weight with arms straight down in front of you.

•Contract abdominals and maintain a straight back.

•Begin squat by sitting back in your hips while bringing arms to shoulder height.

•Pause briefly, slowly return to standing while returning arms to beginning position.

•Repeat pattern 8-10 times.

Tip: Avoid using momentum to lift weights and begin with light weights.

BASIC SIDE PLANK Develops a strong core and works muscle groups throughout entire body.

•Lie on right side, legs extended, feet stacked.

•Place one hand on hip and place other hand on floor with bent elbow in alignment with shoulder.

•Abdominals contracted.

•You will be supporting your weight on elbow and side of right foot.

•Lift hips off floor; body will be in alignment from head to toe.

•Beginners may hold for 10 seconds.

•Slowly lower hips, repeating 8-10 times.

•Repeat on other side.

Tip: Beginners may lie on their side with knees bent.

BICYCLE CRUNCHES Strengthens the core.

•Lie on back with knees bent, feet on floor and hands behind head.

•Contract abdominals to stabilize spine.

•With hands gently holding your head, keep shoulder blades back and raise knees to about a 90-degree angle.

•Lift shoulders off floor without pulling on neck.

•Begin to move knees as though you were pedaling a bicycle.

•Rotate torso as you touch elbow to near opposite knee.

•Alternate elbow and knee rotations.

•Repeat pattern for 12-20 repetitions.

Tip: Torso should be doing all the rotating, not the hips. Drive legs straight forward and backward.

NUTRITION MYTHS

We’ve all heard of fad diets and magic weight loss tips. Maybe our co-worker found a magic supplement to melt off fat, or our neighbor swears by fasting this week, liquids the next and who knows what the following week. Nutrition myths can make healthy choices confusing. Here are four of the most popular nutritional myths:

MYTH 1:

An ultra-low calorie diet is the best way to lose weight

FACT: Chances are, when you dramatically reduce calories with a restricted diet, you will become very hungry in a very short time. And how long can you “remain restricted”? When you do lose weight on this type of diet, the weight lost is usually regained when the diet ends. Protein and fat stimulate hormones. Eating them moderately will keep you full, so you will naturally eat less and feel more satisfied.

MYTH 2: Avoid carbs to lose weight

FACT: Once upon a time, cutting carbs led to weight loss. However, carbohydrates are a very important part of our diet. Carbs are our main source of energy and even help to keep our memories sharp. Unless you are dealing with a special issue and don’t overindulge, carbohydrates are not the bad guys.

MYTH 3: Eggs are unhealthy

FACT: Eggs are now recommended by Dietary

Guidelines. Eggs are a good source of many essential minerals, including vitamin D, which helps bone health and the immune system. Another egg myth is that there is a nutritional difference between brown and white eggs. Not true. Studies have found that eggs are essentially nutritionally the same regardless of color.

MYTH 4: Low-fat or fat-free foods are healthier

FACT: Many foods labeled lowfat or fat-free have added sugar and salt to make up for the lack of flavor. Be sure to check nutrition labels for hidden sugar and sodium content.

Check with your doctor before starting a new exercise program. Sally Anderson is happy to hear from readers but can’t respond to individual inquiries. Contact her at slafit@tampabay.rr.com.

your home. So, if you wanted a way to order 12 pints of Ben & Jerry’s Dublin Mudslide ice cream without ever having to leave the couch, there is now a way to do that. Your secret is safe with us.

BY ERIN FEITSMA Times Total Media Correspondent

Stuck in a gift-giving rut? We can help. This year, forgo giving yet another tool set or cookie-scented candle and opt for something techy using our high-tech gift guide. From curbside grocery services to canine GPS trackers, here we highlight the gifts that can make your loved ones’ lives a little easier.

Know someone who’d prefer a gift that’s more old school? We’ve got you covered. There are certain things in life that even the most helpful home and health gadgets can’t replace. (Like pie. You can’t improve upon pie. But we digress.) You’ll also enjoy our list of gift ideas that never go out of style, with nary a tool set or cookiescented candle in sight.

High-tech gift ideas

Apple AirTags: These handy little tracking devices offer a simple solution to the particular pain of trying to locate misplaced items. The days of searching hither and thither for your missing keys,

Curbside groceries: Sometimes, optimizing an essential task like grocery shopping can help your loved ones save time and energy for the things that matter most. Opting for curbside grocery delivery, which is offered by an array of companies, can make grocery time as simple as ordering your favorite foods online, then scheduling a delivery right to

Bose Sleepbuds™ II: Can’t get enough sleep because of your partner’s incessant snoring? Pop in a pair of Sleepbuds™ II and you’ll be crusin’ for a snoozin’. These earbuds block noise and can play soothing sounds from the Bose Sleep app so that the wearer is peacefully lulled into a gentle slumber. Sleepless nights, begone!

power, adjust accordingly and save on expenses. This plug also pairs with devices like Alexa so that you can direct lights or other objects to turn off with a simple voice command. It’s the same concept as The Clapper®, but with a modern twist. No clapping required.

Oura Ring: If you like your wearable tech to be sleek and stylish, the Oura Ring may be a good fit. When combined with the Oura Membership on your phone, this smart ring can provide metrics on your activity levels, heart rate, sleep patterns and more. Oura uses these metrics to help show you what your body needs, like more rest, and may even be able to detect when you’re prone to sickness.

Smart plugs for lights and devices: Quite possibly one of the coolest items on this list is the wonder that is smart plugs. These devices, like the Kasa Smart Wi-Fi

Apple Watch: This little device can do much more than simply tell time: The Apple Watch keeps track of your daily fitness data, like your movement and the amount of exercise you’re getting; is swim-proof so you don’t have to remove it on a trip to the pool; and can even monitor your heart rate. Other features include crash and fall detection, sleep tracking, an ECG app and more, which give you access to insights about your health and can inspire you to lead a more active lifestyle.

Meditation and sleep apps like Calm and Headspace: Let your loved one know their well-being is your priority with a subscription to meditative and relaxation-oriented apps like Calm or Headspace. A premium subscription to the former will give the subscriber access to hours upon hours of guided meditations, relaxing music, Calm Masterclasses and more. A subscription to the latter provides the user with stress-free tools like sleep exercises, meditations, videos and more.

Bluetooth® speakers: Your loved ones can enjoy music, podcasts and more with portable Bluetooth® speakers that they can take from room to room, or outside on the go. Devices like Bose’s SoundLink Flex Bluetooth® speakers are waterproof and dustproof, can last for 12 hours before needing to be charged and can even float(!), making this the perfect gift for outdoorsy audiophiles who never want to be without their favorite tunes.

Smart doorbell with video:

Give your loved ones the gift of peace of mind with a smart doorbell, like the Ring Video Doorbell 4 device. Gadgets like this one detect motion when a person (or friendly neighborhood cat) approaches their home, can send alerts to their phone when someone’s waiting at the door and even allows them to answer the door remotely if they’re away. This Ring doorbell also has builtin night vision and can pair with an Alexa device.

Timeless gift ideas

life (no battery, no charging, no problem). For the book lover in

Dog GPS tracker: Canine lovers will appreciate a gift that gives them an easy way to locate their pet at all times, especially one that’s known to make a break for it! The Tractive GPS Tracker for Dogs takes worry out of the equation. This lightweight GPS device has unlimited range, is splash-proof and clips to Fido’s collar for convenience. The tracker syncs with an app on your phone, which sends you alerts if your pet gets too far away, and also tracks wellness information, like activity and sleep metrics, about your pet.

Face-to-face conversations: If there’s anything we’ve learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s that face-to-face interactions with those we love are essential to our well-being. Give your loved one the gift of quality time spent together. Treat them to a favorite meal or experience (like enjoying filet mignon at Rococo Steak or strolling the galleries at The Museum of Fine Arts) that will put good conversation front and center.

of pen and paper never goes out of style. Stationery sets and pens with itty bitty floral patterns can be found at Rifle Paper Co.; for fountain pens and wax seals, try The Paper Seahorse.

Sketchpad: Digital tools can replicate the experience of using an artist’s sketchpad, but the original paper version brings warmth and simplicity to the process. Gift your favorite artists with sketchpads and their medium of choice; an array of artistic wares can be found at Blick Art Materials in Tampa. This

gift can be enjoyed at the park, a beloved coffee shop or anywhere inspiration strikes.

Unplugging and enjoying Tampa Bay: There’s nothing like taking a break from technology to be a tourist in your own town. There are plenty of local haunts in the area that can double as great gifts. Think a year-round membership to The Florida Aquarium, annual passes to Busch Gardens or a family membership to Sunken Gardens.

Books: Sure, you could use your Amazon Kindle to read a novel, but there’s nothing like that new-book smell. It’s difficult to replicate the feeling of reading a real-life paperback, with crisp pages and a never-ending shelf

Board games: Take a break from online gaming and use board games as a way to make memories with friends and family this holiday season. This gift can be unwrapped and played immediately while everyone is still in their cozy flannel pajamas and nursing cups of coffee in the wee hours hours of the morning.

1967 Pontiac LeMans, candy apple red with a black convertible top

“Big Red” was actually my second car, having replaced an AustinHealey. Big Red took me every place a woman could even think about going. I drove him to Florida, out to Ohio and all over New York state. Until…

I moved from Long Island to Brooklyn in the summer of 1969 to earn my graduate degree at Hunter College. Before I moved, I simonized Big Red to his gleaming best. After my first evening class at Hunter (I took the subway), I returned to my apartment to

discover someone had broken the passenger side window of Big Red and stolen everything not bolted down. I reported it to the police and put plastic up on the window to keep the weather out.

I returned the next evening from class and Big Red was gone! Someone stole the car this time and the police suggested it was probably already on its way out of the country or in a chop shop. It’s been more than 50 years, but I still miss Big Red.
