TAHA TINANA - Healthy Body - Situps - HANNAH

Talofa Lava! Hannah is back with another TAHA Challenge. Today she has an exercise that will help us build up our core (the middle area of our bodies), especially our abdominal and hip muscles. Core strength is important for a healthy flexible body. This kind of TAHA TINANA power means we can stand tall and bend easily in all different directions.  

Challenge: Do 25 sit ups in 2 minutes or less

Get your timer ready! How many sit ups can you do in 2 minutes? 5? 25? 50?

Have a go and share your experience on a blog post.

Check out Hannah's blog and leave a comment for her.
