I have become seriously deconditioned over the past 14 months and am working to get myself back into solid riding condition. That requires strength and stamina in the core muscles.
One of the best exercises to help achieve that strength and stamina is to pound a heavy punching bag while moving rapidly around the suspended bag. The key is to use every bit of the upper body to throw the punch and to snap back into position after each set of combination blows.
Wear quality punching gloves and keep the wrist stable to prevent fractures.
It is also great aerobic conditioning and might just help keep you living long enough to see your granddaughter astride a wild stallion.
