Quick answer

01

A 25-Minute Routine

Do each move for 40 seconds with 20 seconds of rest, two or three rounds.

  • Bodyweight squats
  • Glute bridges
  • Incline or knee push-ups
  • Dead bugs
  • Side plank, each side
  • Marching on the spot
02

Core Moves That Protect Your Back

Choose slow, controlled moves such as dead bugs, bird dogs and planks. Breathe out as you tighten and avoid pulling on your neck. If you are postpartum or have back pain, check with a doctor first.

03

How Often to Train

Three or four sessions a week with at least one rest day works well, along with a 30-minute daily walk.

04

Why Food Still Matters

Exercise strengthens the stomach muscles, but a mild calorie deficit is what reveals them. Combine this routine with a protein-rich Indian diet for visible change.

Bottom Line

Fat cannot be spot-reduced, so steady overall fat loss, strength training, sleep and stress control work best. If you have PCOS, thyroid issues or any health condition, speak to your doctor first.
