A great ab workout to burn fat and strengthen muscles!
High-intensity interval training, or HIIT, is a popular training style that alternates bursts of high-intensity exercise with short recovery periods. HIIT is great for burning calories, losing fat, and building lean muscle. It also helps you improve your endurance and cardiac health. This High-Intensity Routine to Target Your Abs is meant for people at the intermediate to advanced level.
In order to get the most out of this workout, push yourself during the high-intensity exercise periods. Aim to perform the moves as quickly as possible without losing proper form. The 15-second recovery periods will allow you to rest so that you don’t burn out too quickly.
