We're going to help you slim down a thick waistline with a no-equipment-required workout we've designed to meet your goal. Let's get started!

We get that many people don't have the time to commit to a strength training program in a gym setting, or perhaps they don't have easy access to equipment.

There are many movements that you can do to challenge your body, and we are going to explore them today.

Begin the Cross-Body Mountain Climber exercise by getting into a pushup position with your feet fully extended and shoulders in line with the wrist. Keep your core tight, and take one knee and drive it towards the opposite elbow, flexing your obliques at the end. Bring your leg back to the pushup position before doing it again with the other leg. Alternate back and forth, maintaining tension in your core the entire time. Perform 3 to 4 sets of 15 reps on each leg.

Start the Bulgarian Split Squat in a standing position. Rest your back foot on a bench or couch, and step out with your other foot about 2 to 3 feet away from the bench. Start the movement by lowering your body straight down—with control—so that your back knee almost touches the ground and your front knee is in a runner's lunge. Then, use your weight to drive through your front heel in order to return to standing, flexing your quads and glutes as you rise. Perform 3 to 4 sets of 10 reps on each leg.

For the Quad Press exercise, think of a half squat/half pushup movement. Get down on the floor, and place your hands under your shoulders in a tabletop position. Next, turn your forearms inward about 45 degrees to form a diamond with the hands, and have your knees bent but just above the ground. Keep your weight evenly balanced between your hands and the inside balls of your feet. Lower yourself down by bending at the elbows while pushing your knees out and keeping your back flat. Push your back up through your palms and toes while flexing your triceps hard at the top with each rep. Perform 3 to 4 sets of 15 to 20 reps.

Begin your Jump Squats by placing your legs about hip-width distance apart. Keep your core tight, and throw your arms and hips back at the same time. Swing your arms forward, and jump up as high as you can. Land softly into a half squat before jumping again. Complete 3 to 4 sets of 10 reps.

Begin this next move by getting into the side plank position with your bottom leg in front of the top one. With your top hand holding your head, perform a side crunch by bringing the top elbow towards the bottom knee. Flex your oblique hard, then return to starting position before performing another rep. Complete 3 to 4 sets of 10 reps on each side.6254a4d1642c605c54bf1cab17d50f1e
