August Ab Workout

We all want abs but also want to stuff our faces with donuts and oreos, don't we? I have been pretty good about eating clean and I only target abs about 1 time a week because most exercises I do, target the core too.

This is how I currently look....

Here are a few short clips from one of my abs day. {Google changed the videos when they went to the cloud, so sorry if they look funky. :)}

Table top crunches

Bicycle crunches.

Good old plank.

Side plank and neck veins for the win. 

Boat rows or there is like 5 other names too. 

A few of my favorite exercises are:
-planks
-side planks
-boat rows
-downward dog kicks
-bicycle crunches
-mountain climbers
-table top crunches
-toe reaches
-opposite leg crunches
-reverse crunches
-hanging leg raises
-balance ball tucks

It is really easy to just pick a few and do a circuit 3 or 4 times with short rest periods.

P.S. Abs are really made in the kitchen but this will help them show! :)

Abbbbbbs

Abbbbbbbbbs. Oh boy.

Today, while having a conversation with J about working out, I proceeded to say I wanted to get better abs. He said "That would be sexy." Darrrrrrn it. Now I have to get abs in percisely 47 days.

I have been doing some full body and cardio workouts on fitsugar.com and they have been good but NOW I have to step it up with my ab workouts....crap.

Don't get my wrong, I enjoy working out but I would rather do legs over abs ANYDAY.

I have been major "pinteresting: today finding workouts so wish me luck! ;)

Since J is in the USMC and one of the requirements to get in is 2 pull-ups. So that is my other goal that I am going to do. I tried about a month ago and it was an EPIC FAIL. I have no arm strenth when it comes to that, whatsoever.

If you are looking for a quick new workout, www.fitsugar.com has 10 min workouts that are fun to do!!! They are a great warm-up or nice on days where you don't have much time. So check it out ;)


Happy friday, everyone!!!
