Reveal those sexy abs!
Your core is at the center of it all, literally. With a strong and tight core, everything else becomes increasingly manageable. Your core is an active part of every movement you do. Walking, running, lifting and nearly every single exercise involves the core.
This 5-minute routine will burn your abs to exhaustion. Since the abs are a large muscle, we’ll use a heavy weight to get them trained to their full potential. Push yourself through this routine and flatten that belly to perfection.
Equipment Needed: Interval Timer (Gymboss is a free app download), one heavy weight(think 20-25 lbs), yoga mat or soft surface
