The 10 Minute Ab workout................................. Dont let the title fool you. This ab workout is not the ultimate solution to ripped abs. It take serious effort in training as well as smart nutrition and a strong will to achieve the highly sought after 6 pack. remember 6 packs are built in the Kitchen not the gym However, many of us are busy, so any chance we have to knock out a training session in a hurry and go on with our day is a chance we want to take. This 10-minute routine will give your abs a solid workout and allow you to move on to other things. It is a great starting point in readiness for the new year and breaks you back into the workout routine gently. I suggest that you perform these four exercises in consecutive order without rest. Once completed rest for about 1 minute and repeat up to 4 times..As you get more comfortable then reduce your rest time in 15 second intervals ( 60 seconds-45 seconds-30 seconds etc) Here we go..................... Exercise 1 - Crunches for 20 reps. Make sure you squeeze your abs. Dont just go back and forth without contracting your abs. Slow and deliberate is the key here. Exercise 2 - Lying Leg Raises for 20 reps. Start with your legs at 90 degrees. Take them down slowly to 45 degrees ( you can eventually go down to 6inches from the floor ) When you raise your legs, lift your hips up at the top of the movement pointing your toes toward the ceiling and squeeze your abs. Exercise 3 - Mountain Climbers for 20 steps per leg. Dont simply move your legs back and forth. Focus on your midsection with each step. Remember both legs move simultaneously. Set your own pace, one that you can last for the whole 20 reps without changing tempo. Exercise 4 - Plank for 20 seconds. As tired as you may be at this point, suck in your stomach and forcefully breathe out. Youll feel it in your core. ow.ly/i/86gto
