It’s a Good Day to Work on Abs!!

So, summer is inching closer to us, and we still seem to avoid the bathing suit section that is literally staring us in the face when we walk into any department store. I mean seriously. We as women can not catch a break! Not only that, but there are images of beautiful women everywhere with flat, sexy abs, and we are just sitting at home thinking to ourselves, man, I want a stomach like or close to her’s. It goes through everyone’s mind.

So, let’s work on that. We only have a limited amount of time, and I want to give you a workout you can do on your own time. It is AB INTERVALS! Interval training has many benefits:increasing endurance, burning more calories in less time, improving speed and acceleration, and it speeds up your metabolism!

**Each workout is a minute long!

1. To warm up, jog in place for 30 sec and switch to high knees for the last 30 sec.

2. Go into a plank position  (elbows down)15 sec, switch to downward dog (hold 15 sec) **use your lower abs to switch from plank to downward dogs because we are targeting that lower belly area. And repeat one more time- plank 15, downward dog 15.

3. NO BREAK! Hold plank (elbows on the ground) again and begin plank pulsing. tuck and squeeze your lower abs and control the movement. (say to yourself “down, and up, down, and up, at a steady speed”) Do for 1MINUTE! Take a rest if you need to within that minute, but get right back into.

4. Side plank hold 30 sec. After 30 sec begin pulsing on the side plank. Dip your hips down and up, you should feel it in your obliques.

5. Switch sides, other side plank hold 30 sec, and after 30 sec begin pulsing.

6. Russian Twists 1 minute:  butt only on the ground an knees bent. Twist your upper body side to side so that elbows are coming close to the floor. If you have a free weight at home, use that to add some resistance.

7. Cardio Recovery: Jumping jacks 30 sec switch to slow and controlled squat. To get the full range of motion in the squat, when you come up squeeze your gluts to automatically contract your lowers abs, that way we are still using our core!

8.Flutter kicks 1 min: lay on your back and, if experienced, put your hands at your sides, if you still need a little help, place your hands under your gluts (where your lower back meets your butt)

Repeat this 3 times! It will be intense, but it worth it!

 

The benefits of interval training are many, including: increasing endurance, improving acceleration and speed, and burning more calories in less time. Basically, it makes you more athletic, quicker, and accomplishes what you would on a treadmill in a third of the time! Plus, it revs up your metabolism and keeps you burning fat for hours longer post workout which will help give you great looking abs.
