Side Plank Hip Lift

 

Start in a side plank position with your elbow directly under your shoulder and your feet stacked. Keeping your body in a straight line, lower your hip towards the floor and then lift it back up. Ensure your core is tight throughout the movement. Perform for sets on both sides for optimal balance and strength.

Russian Twists

 

Sit on the floor with knees bent and feet elevated off the ground. Lean back slightly to keep your torso at a 45-degree angle and hold your hands together in front of you. Twist your torso to the right, then to the left, with controlled movements. Engage your obliques during the exercise for maximum fat burn around the upper hips.

Bicycle Crunches

 

Lie on your back with knees bent at a 90-degree angle and hands placed behind your head. Lift your shoulders off the ground and bring one knee toward your chest while twisting your opposite elbow toward it. Alternate sides in a pedaling motion. This dynamic crunch targets the entire core, including upper hip fat.

Standing Oblique Crunch

 

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, hands behind your head, and elbows out. Lift one knee and bring it toward your elbow on the same side, crunching your oblique muscles. Alternate sides to maintain balance and promote fat loss in the upper hips.

Mountain Climbers

 

Get into a high plank position with hands under shoulders. Drive your knees toward your chest alternately, as if running against the floor. Maintain a quick pace while keeping your core engaged; this high-intensity move offers a solid cardio workout, burning upper hip fat effectively.

Woodchoppers

 

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and hold a dumbbell or medicine ball with both hands. Twist your torso to swing the weight from a high position on one side of your body down diagonally to the opposite side. Return to the starting position and repeat, switching sides. This rotational movement helps in targeting oblique and upper hip regions.

Reverse Lunges with Twist

 

Stand tall with feet together. Step one leg back into a lunge position, and while in the lunge, twist your torso toward your front leg. Return to standing and repeat on the other side. This engages both the legs and core, focusing on reducing fat around the upper hips.

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)

 

Incorporate exercises such as burpees, squat jumps, and skaters into your routine. Short bursts of maximum effort followed by rest periods keep your heart rate elevated, burning fat throughout the body, including stubborn upper hip areas.

Hanging Leg Raises

 

Hang from a pull-up bar with hands shoulder-width apart. Keep your legs straight and raise them to form an L-shape with your body. Slowly lower them back down. This intense movement targets the entire abdominal region, helping reduce upper hip fat.

Bridge with Leg Lift

 

Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift your hips to form a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. While holding the bridge, extend one leg straight out. Lower it back without letting your hips drop. Alternate legs to fully engage the glutes and hip muscles.

Premium Medication you can trust

How to Combine Exercises for Losing Upper Hips Fat

 

Side Plank Hip Lift and Russian Twists

 

  • Alternate between Side Plank Hip Lift and Russian Twists to effectively target your obliques and enhance your core stability. Start with a set of Side Plank Hip Lifts on one side, followed by Russian Twists. Complete the same sequence on the opposite side to ensure balanced muscle engagement.

 

Bicycle Crunches and Standing Oblique Crunch

 

  • Pair Bicycle Crunches with Standing Oblique Crunches to maintain continuous oblique engagement while transitioning from floor to standing. Perform a set of Bicycle Crunches and immediately stand to complete the Standing Oblique Crunches for a seamless transition that maximizes core activation.

 

Mountain Climbers and High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)

 

  • Integrate Mountain Climbers into your HIIT routine for a powerful cardio session. Use Mountain Climbers during the high-intensity intervals of your HIIT workout, alongside other movements like burpees and squat jumps, to keep the heart rate elevated and target upper hip fat effectively.

 

Woodchoppers and Reverse Lunges with Twist

 

  • Combine Woodchoppers with Reverse Lunges with Twist for a comprehensive workout focusing on rotational and twisting movements. Start with Woodchoppers to engage the obliques, followed by Reverse Lunges with Twist to incorporate both leg and core strength, aiding in upper hip fat loss.

 

Hanging Leg Raises and Bridge with Leg Lift

 

  • Sequence Hanging Leg Raises with Bridge and Leg Lift to work on your entire core and glutes simultaneously. Begin with Hanging Leg Raises to intensely target the lower abs, then move to the ground for Bridge with Leg Lift to keep the core active while also engaging the hips and glutes.

Got questions? We have answers.

Do your plans include prescriptions and medications?

Curex plans cover everything from reviewing your medical intake to providing prescription medications, with free shipping included. There are no extra or hidden charges. Prescriptions are issued only after a medical provider reviews your information to confirm that the medication is suitable for you. Our service includes continuous support and regular follow-ups to ensure your treatment stays on track.

Our clinicians may order labs and additional medications for you, which would not be covered by the plan but for which you can use your insurance.

Please note: Compounded medications are tailored to individual needs or used in case of shortages, but they are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is required. Results may vary from person to person.

What medications do your providers prescribe?

We prioritize a personalized approach to your health. If your medical provider prescribes medication, options may include GLP-1 treatments such as compounded semaglutide (the active ingredient in Wegovy®* and Ozempic®*). Our providers prescribe only combination treatments not available at your local pharmacy that may include vitamin B12, etc. to help you achieve your goals faster.

Depending on your treatment goals, other medications such as metformin may also be considered. We recognize the importance of managing side effects, so your care plan might include medication to ease symptoms like nausea. Your well-being is always our top priority!

Please note that compounded medications are customized to meet individual patient needs and are not FDA-approved for safety or effectiveness. A prescription is necessary. Results may vary from person to person.

Curex and its pharmacy partners do not have any association with Novo Nordisk.

Will I be prescribed semaglutide if I sign up?

Your health journey is unique, and we tailor our care to match. Any prescriptions, including semaglutide, will be based on the expert assessment of the medical provider matched with you through our platform. You can trust that your treatment plan will be personalized to fit your specific needs. And if semaglutide is not prescribed, we will provide a full refund.

What is compounded medication?

Compounding involves creating customized medications to meet the specific needs of individual patients. For instance, a patient may require a liquid version of a medication that is only available in tablet form. Pharmacies can also compound medications using FDA-approved drugs that are on the FDA’s shortage list.

These compounded medications are made by state-licensed pharmacies that follow both federal and state regulations, including quality standards. However, when compounded in accordance with these laws, these medications are not subject to FDA approval and are not evaluated for safety or effectiveness.

Is compounded medication the same as generic medication?

Compounded medications differ from generic drugs. Generics require FDA approval by demonstrating bio-equivalence to the brand-name drug. In contrast, compounded medications are not FDA-approved. They are made based on a personalized prescription that may not be commercially available elsewhere or when a drug appears on the FDA’s shortage list. Compounding pharmacies must have the proper licensed facilities and comply with state and federal regulations before dispensing these medications.

Is insurance required?

No, Curex doesn’t require insurance. We offer clear and simple pricing, along with affordable medication options, making it easy and accessible to take care of your health.

Can I pay with an FSA or HSA card?

Yes! You can pay with your HSA or FSA card.

How much does treatment cost?

Semaglutide is priced at $149 for your first month, and $299 per month thereafter. This includes unlimited messaging with your medical provider, access to compounded medication at any dosage (if prescribed), and a user-friendly portal where you can manage your care plan and track your progress.

These prices do not include sales, promotions, or special offers.

Can you prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®*?

Our providers focus on personalized medications and dosages that aren’t commercially available at your local pharmacy. While we don’t prescribe Ozempic®* or Wegovy®* directly, we may prescribe treatments containing the same active ingredient. These medications are specially compounded for you by a licensed pharmacy to meet your specific needs.

Are video visits with a provider required?

Our providers will review your information 100% online. Depending on where you live and the specifics of your medical history, our providers may require you to have a video visit or asynchronous visit via text message. If prescribed, you’ll get unlimited online access to message your provider as needed for follow-ups, adjustments, and answers to your questions.
