Hi Everyone!
This workout is focused on strengthening and tightening the core. When building a core workout it is important to remember to work your body from every angle. Each muscle works in a different plane of movement, so to effectively strengthen each muscle you need to complete exercises in each plane.
I repeated this workout 2X yesterday (the video was actually my second time through). Jesse did this one with me. It’s a great core strengthening workout for runners to help them maintain form and help them maximize their speed and endurance when running.
I paired this with a 2.6 mile easy paced run last night. The weather was to beautiful not to run, and it felt great to get outside and stretch my legs.
If you are joining me for the challenge don’t forget to check in on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. The check in posts are a great way to stay motivated and on track. 🙂
Have fun!

My abs were on fire! Great workout!
Thank you! 🙂
Wow! This kicked my butt! I have to be honest, I just barely made it through. I’ll try again tomorrow…continuous improvement.
Going for a second round in thiis one… Let’s see how it goes…
Ay… :p
Wow! Ok, I did this hours ago, and now, after my meal, i can relax.
That was tough!! Two rounds! Seriously, sometimes you serm super human, Melissa! 🙂
The toughest one herr for me were the V-ups with Snow Angels… Gosh, more than angels they were like devils!!! So hard!! I had bend my legs; couldn’t stretch them and keep them up. Too hard.
I’ll build to it, though.
Thank you, Melissa!!
