Key Points:
- Lucy Borrie, founder of the BeBody workout app, highlights squats, lunges, and planks as fundamental exercises common across many workout styles.
- Proper form is essential before adding weight or variations: squats involve lowering hips with weight on heels and knees outward, lunges require stepping forward with a 90° knee angle, and planks focus on a straight body with engaged core.
- Recommended routines include 1-3 sets of 10 reps for squats and lunges, and 1-3 sets of 30-second holds for planks.
- Borrie emphasizes maintaining posture cues such as keeping the chest lifted during squats and engaging the glutes during planks for effective execution.
