Hi Everyone!
I hope you’re ready for a tummy toning workout, because this one is tough! This workout uses all of the muscles of your core, and will help sculpt your abs. This is a great workout to pair with a run or cardio of your choice.
Remember, a strong core helps you gain strength for everything that you do. It protects your back, and improves your form during all exercise. Your core is responsible for your ability to maintain your balance. Those are just a few reasons to be sure you are working on that mid-section!
Have fun with this one!

*If the plank variations are to difficult, an alternative option is to hold a static plank. Choose a length of time that is challenging for you. As you build strength with correct form you will be able to progress to the more difficult variations.
