Forget the gym — you just need 15 minutes and 1 kettlebell to build a stronger core with this standing ab workout

If you own one of the best kettlebells, you’re just 15 minutes away from building a stronger core. This trainer-led workout targets your deep core muscles and abs, and is all done standing up. You just need space to move your body and the kettlebell around and you're good to go.

The routine, designed by trainer Roxanne Russell, is featured on her YouTube channel, Workout with Roxanne. When I’m exercising at home, I love following video-led routines like this. They’re a great way to ensure you learn the proper form of each move while capturing the feel of an exercise class — all from the comfort of your own space.

If you don’t own a kettlebell, Russell suggests substituting it with a dumbbell. One of the best adjustable dumbbells is especially handy for this workout, letting you easily vary the weight between moves as needed.
