Slim, tone, and tighten your waist for a sexy, hourglass figure.
You’ve had a flat belly all of your life, but recently you’ve noticed weight starting to accumulate around your waistline. Does this sound familiar? Don’t worry; there’s nothing wrong with you. As we age, our metabolism slows down, and hormone levels change, causing us to store more belly fat. Luckily, there are things we can do to keep this from happening! This 7-day waist challenge will help you slim down and re-shape your midsection for good.
While this week-long challenge will help you burn calories, it is also essential to follow a healthy eating plan. If you don’t know where to start, try the 21-Day Flat Belly Meal Plan.
This challenge is special because it doesn’t just focus on building your core muscles. As you will see, each day’s workout combines a core workout with a fat-melting cardio or High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) element. This combination enables you to not only tone and tighten your abdominal muscles, but it will also help you shed the fat that lies above them! In total, performing these two workouts each day will take about 30 minutes.
