6 Easy Exercises to Build Your Abs
How to tone up your body and lose excess weight? All you need is a multipurpose abs workout, and you'll see the difference in no time. So are you ready to transform your body into its dream shape? Then put on your sportswear, and let's get it started!
If you have a goal of burning some extra fat, toning up your butt, or losing a couple of inches off your waist, it doesn’t mean you have to spend all your spare time at the gym. All you need is an effective workout routine, a balanced diet, and a little time. A lot of training programs and workouts don't give great results simply because they target only one muscle group. As a result, it gets an amazing workout while the other muscles are basically abandoned. So the solution is easy: you have to train all the muscle groups during your workout, and that's exactly what we’re going to do.

SUMMARY:
- Start the exercise by lying on your back. Now sit up with an explosive movement, bringing your right knee to your chest and swinging your left arm forward as if running.
- Lie on your back, place your hands underneath your hips, and lift your head off the ground. From this position, lift your right leg as high as you can while keeping your left leg hovering just off the ground.
- Lie on your back, and put your hands beneath your hips. Now bend your knees, and lift them toward your head, drawing them slightly upward at the end of your movement. Finish the exercise by lowering your feet back down just above the floor.
- Sit on the floor with your knees bent, your feet slightly above the ground, your back off the ground at 45°, and your arms locked together and held away from your body. While in this position, swing your arms from side to side in a twisting motion 20 times.
- Pretty much every workout out there has a plank in it. And it's not surprising at all since it involves tons of muscle groups — including your abs, which can be toned up faster than you think if you do planks regularly.
- Start in a plank position with your arms straight. Slowly raise your hips, and pull your toes up toward your hands without bending your knees so that your body looks like an inverted letter V. Hold this pose for 2–3 seconds, and then go back to the initial position.

5 Exercises It's Better to Avoid If You Train Alone
How to Stay Healthy while Exercising. Whether you prefer to run, swim, or hit the gym, one thing is certain: we’re all working out a whole lot more. The US alone has seen an increase of 5,500 gyms since 2012. Unfortunately, there are many ways you could be exercising incorrectly and permanently damaging your body in the process. Just as a jogger running on concrete can injure their legs, men can hurt themselves by exercising in ways you probably thought were safe. Here at Bright Side, we’ve collected a list of the 5 most useless or dangerous exercises you should avoid to stay fit and healthy.
Don’t forget that even though exercising is a surefire way to stay healthy, you might be doing more harm than good to your body. Take note of whether you feel an unnatural ache in your shoulders or arms after your workout. Another important thing to understand is that a particular exercise needs to be followed to the T. This means that if you’re doing it even the slightest bit wrong, the entire ordeal may be in vain.

SUMMARY
-The gym market has been flooded with cheap core-strengthening ab machines. Even if the machine is perfectly calibrated to your body size, there is still a high probability of the strain going directly to your lower back. Try to find a trainer to explain the best way to do an exercise. You may think that a machine may be useless, but there could be something you’re forgetting to do with it.
-The behind-the-head shoulder press is another dangerous exercise that you should avoid. Holding something behind your head puts your shoulders in a very dangerous position, and that danger is amplified with any additional weight you use.
-Another machine you need to be on the lookout for is the Smith machine. The Smith machine is an upright, steel assembly designed to help with squatting. The weight puts a strain on your entire body, so you need to evenly distribute the weight to avoid hurting yourself. But with a Smith machine, your back is forced to stay straight the entire time.
-The hip adductor machine may look like it’s used as a leg exerciser, but the majority of the strain falls directly onto your hips. Overall, there is no natural movement or task that should require you to load your hips with weight in this style.
-Another dangerous gym machine is the seated torso rotator. Physicians have found that the machine is actually twisting and straining your spine. The irony of this is that the more you use this machine and stretch your obliques, the further you’ll twist and damage your spine.

How to Survive Being Lost at Sea
How to Survive Natural Disasters. No one in the world is 100% safe from natural disasters, and you should know exactly how to save your own life and help others in case you find yourself in a critical situation. Pay attention to the right course of action that will help you to survive and assist those around you. Here are some recommendations about what to do and what not to do in critical situations.
How to survive an earthquake 2:11
If an earthquake finds you inside, fall to the floor and use anything nearby that is sturdy and strong: a desk, a bed, or a table as a cover. If there's nothing nearby, crouch in an inside corner of the building. Protect your head with your arms. DO NOT go outside. You’re safer inside the building. DO NOT hide under doorways. It’s not safe. Stay inside until you feel the shaking stop. If you are outdoors, stay clear of buildings, utility wires, streetlights, and other objects that may fall. If you're driving, stop the car immediately, but don't leave it. If you are trapped under debris, don't panic, and don't try to get out on your own. Wait for help.
How to survive a tornado 5:28
If you're inside when tornado hits, immediately stop whatever you are doing. Find a shelter. If you can't reach an underground shelter, go down to the basement. If you can't get underground, find a room without windows. It should be the closest to the center of the house and on the lowest floor available. Wherever you are, lie down or crouch on the ground with your face turned down. Cover your head with your arms.
How to survive a tsunami 7:34
The first thing you need to do in case of tsunami is move as far away from the shore as possible. Find higher ground. It's best if you can get as high up as 100 ft above sea level. If you live in an area that can be affected by a tsunami, plan an evacuation route. This will help you in a critical situation.
How to survive a hurricane 8:20
When you hear an announcement about an approaching hurricane, follow the instructions from the authorities. When the hurricane approaches, stay clear of glass doors and windows. Whatever the reason, DO NOT go outside. Even if you think that the hurricane has passed, stay inside until the authorities confirm that it's safe to leave buildings. After the hurricane is over, DO NOT drink tap water. It may be contaminated with bacteria.
TIMESTAMPS
Rip current 0:52
Earthquake 2:11
Tornado 5:28
Tsunami 7:34
Hurricane 8:20
SUMMARY
-Your primary goal is to get back to calm waters. You should NOT try to swim against a rip current. Try to stay calm and persuade yourself that you have the situation under control.
-If you’re inside, fall to the floor and find cover. Stay away from windows, glass objects, outside walls and doors. If an earthquake gets you outside, stay clear of buildings, utility wires, streetlights, and other objects that may fall.
-When a tornado hits, find a shelter immediately. If you can't get underground, find a room without windows. If you're driving when you hear a tornado warning, try to get to the nearest building as quickly as you can.
-In case of tsunami, move as far away from the shore as possible. Find higher ground. Don’t use tall buildings and high trees to seek shelter from a tsunami.
-As soon as you hear a hurricane warning, fill all containers in your home (including bathtubs) with water. When the hurricane approaches, stay clear of glass doors and windows.

A 4-Minute Workout to Slim Down Your Legs
If you want to slim down your legs and get the body of your dreams ready for the summer, this video is just for you. You can make your legs slimmer, sexier, and more toned in just three months with the help of this simple 4-minute morning workout. You can try this super effective workout right now as you watch this video! Save it to your favorites to go back to it whenever you want.
Before every workout, even a short one, it's extremely important to get your body ready. It’s called a “warm-up” for a reason: it increases your blood circulation which, in turn, warms up your muscles to prevent injury. The best way to warm up your body in the morning and prepare it for a leg workout is jogging in place.
We’re gonna begin with lunges. With any exercise, form is key. As for lunges, it’s important to get into the right starting position to perform them correctly.
Outer thigh lifts strengthen your hips and, obviously, your outer thighs.
Frog jumps exercise also has an “afterburner” effect, which means that even after you finish doing it, calories continue to be burnt throughout the next 24 hours.

TIMESTAMPS
#1 Warm-up: jogging in place 0:31
#2 Bodyweight lunges 1:59
#3 Outer thigh lifts 3:39
#4 Plié slides 5:07
#5 Frog jumps 6:46
Summing it all up 8:38
SUMMARY
-Start by doing kick-backs. This is basically jogging in such a way that your heels touch your butt. Keep doing this for 15 seconds. After that, jog in place while lifting your knees up to waist-level. This is called high-knee marching.
-Lunges aren’t just great at sculpting the legs. They also provide you with improved balance as well as better flexibility in your spine and hip flexor muscle.
-With your right leg straight and planted against the mat, slowly lift your left leg.
Keep it in the air for a couple of seconds, then lower it back down.
-Plié slides will chisel your inner and outer thighs as well as your quads and glutes. Besides toning the legs, plié slides also strengthen the lower body.
-Since frog jumps are a plyometric exercise, you burn calories extremely fast. This helps your legs slim down by sculpting and tightening your thighs.
-Altogether, this leg workout comes to just a hair over 4 minutes. You’ll see great results after 3 months of exercise.

9 Easy Exercises to Make Your Legs Toned
Squats are the best exercise for getting the butt of your dreams, but we'll prove that you can add roundness to your glutes even without those squats that have already bored everybody to death. We’ve put together nine toning exercises that aren't squats but will nevertheless help you to build the curves you desire. Add this video to your favorites and go back to it 3 times a week for the best possible results.
Here're some highlights of the workout we offer:
• Workout zone: anywhere where there's a flat solid surface (like the floor with an exercise mat on it);
•Targeted zones: the gluteal muscles;
•Workout performance: one complete workout includes nine exercises, each with 10-15 repetitions;
•Workout frequency: 3 times per week;
•The result: a toned and lifted butt, improved body alignment, and improved athletic performance.
When you're doing the leg lifts, hold your spine in a neutral position. Also, keep your head in line with your neck. Exhale and squeeze the butt muscles as you lift the leg.
Remember, building a better butt takes time and dedication, plus make sure you follow a healthy diet!

TIMESTAMPS
Highlights of the workout 0:42
Stiff leg deadlift 1:13
Resistance band glue kickback 2:33
Glute bridge 3:36
Stability ball hamstring curl 4:33
Lateral leg raises 5:40
Plank leg raises 6:42
Dumbbell rear lunge 8:07
Reverse plank hip lift 9:08
Fire hydrant 10:03
SUMMARY
-Workout zone, performance, frequency and results are some of the highlights of the workout we offer.
-Basic deadlifts force a lot of your muscles to work simultaneously and are extremely effective for shaping your butt.
-Glute kickbacks are bodyweight exercises that target the buttocks. You'll need a resistance band for this particular exercise to wrap it around one foot and keep the other end under your knee.
-When done properly, glute bridge, that is a simple yet effective exercise, will help you feel how your glutes work in the movement.
-Stability ball hamstring curl is a lower body exercise that targets your hamstrings, calves, and glutes. You can find a stability ball in any gym and use it for this exercise.
-Side leg raises are a good glute workout you can do at home with just your bodyweight. It's very simple to perform, and most of us know its, technique from school.
-Plank leg raises will make your hip flexors and lower back work hard. Do it if you're a beginner or as a warm-up before the main training.
-The main advantage of the reverse rear lunge is that you're putting less stress on the knee joints.
-The main targeted muscles during reverse plank hip lift are the abdominals, lower back, glutes, and triceps.
-Fire hydrant is a single joint exercise that focuses on the gluteus muscles, as well as your core to stabilize your body.

9 Tips for a Perfect Hollywood Smile
How to whiten your teeth naturally at home? Are you looking for way ways to whiten your teeth? We found 9 methods that you can try at home and that won’t do you any harm at all. If you follow this advice on a regular basis, you’ll see your teeth lighten up a few tones!
TIMESTAMPS
DIY whitening toothpaste 3:16
Tea tree oil 4:30
Strawberry paste 5:26
Coconut oil 6:27
Activated charcoal mask 7:08
Banana peel whitener 7:50
Lemon mouthwash 8:41
Basil leaves 9:10
Aloe vera 9:50
SUMMARY
First of all, it can be genetics. This one is hard to beat. Yellowish teeth tone might be just a thing in your family, and you inherited it from your parents. Don’t blame them. They also gave you a sharp mind and beautiful eyes.
Second, it is certain medications. The antibiotics doxycycline and tetracycline can even darken the teeth of children under 8. Research has shown these medications can even affect a baby who is not born yet. If your mother took them in the second half of her pregnancy, it might give you permanent stains on your teeth as you grow up.
Dentin is also to blame for a not so white smile. It is a material, which lives under your enamel. When the enamel is thin, you can see the dentin. It is that deep yellow to the brownish color we hate to see on our teeth.
