Windshield wipers are a brutal core exercise that targets the obliques, an often neglected and hard to work part of the body. This exercise will improve core stability and will specifically improve power and flexibility needed in twisting motions.

Fantastic core workout, trust me when I saw this video I was just amazed! I thought this would be close to impossible. I tried it and I could bust out a good four times back and fourth, back and fourth. To get this exercise down, do the same exercise with your legs bent with your knees pointed at the sky. Just do the same back and fourth movement like in the video above and keep doing those and eventually you will get it! Have fun! -Josef Baier
