Rock N Roll Abs Workout

Feb 12, 2014 by Tatianna

 

Hello my Lovies,

Today I have an amazing Abs Routine, It’s been a while since I’ve made one and I was inspired. This routine is going to make it my ” Favorites ” list, because I almost never get sore in my abs, but this workout did it and that’s what I loved about it. This routine will work your core and every part of your abs top to bottom. I would say it’s more of an Intermediate level, but I will give you an option of how you can make it more advanced, in the video I also went over the beginners variations. It’s one of the longer ” Abs Workouts “, 18 minutes not counting the breaks ( for me it’s longer cause I usually only spend about 5-10 minutes tops on my abs per workout. )

 

For all the Newbies to Loving Fit

 

If you are new to Loving Fit I recommend to check out ” Creating Your Workout Plan ” post. There you will be able to see how I put together my routines, and you can find something for your own fitness level. My philosophy is: Form is always more important than speed, so WATCH YOUR FORM!

Things to remember before, during and after your workout

1. Warm-Up
2. Always Practice Good Form
3. Stretch

 

 

Workout Explanation

 

In the video you can do 1 full round with me, but I personally always prefer to write down workouts and do them by my self, not follow any video. All you need in this workout is a mat, a sandbag ( I used 40 lbs ) and an Gymboss Timer.

There are 3 rounds in this routine. You will go through the set of 7 exercises ( one of which are done per each side ) back to back without a break. Then take a break for recovery between rounds.

Complete beginners use 30 sec interval per exercise ( also use the beginner variations I showed in the video ). Rest 2-3 minutes between rounds.

Intermediate Level use 45 sec interval per exercise. Rest 2 minutes in between rounds.

Advanced Level use 1 full minute interval per exercise. Rest 1 minute between rounds.

• If this is the only workout you are doing, make sure to finish off with something metabolic like running, jump rope or other bodyweight cardio.

Set your Gymboss Timer for 8 rounds of 45 sec ( that’s what I used ) and complete the following sequence in this order.

• Side To Side Oblique Knee Drops
• Rolling Kicks
• Slow Side To Side Heel Reach
• Sandbag Sitting Pick-up Twist
• Sandbag Pick-up Twist and Curl Combo
• Side Bicycle ( Right Side )
• Side Bicycle ( Left Side )
• Half Burpee & Kick

 

( PROPER FORM SHOULD BE WATCHED IN THE VIDEO BEFORE PROCEEDING, THINGS CAN LOOK DECEIVING IN THE VIDEO that’s why I always explain how you should do each exercise ).

Have fun my loves! Let me know how you like this routine, I would love your feedback.

Hugs,

Tati
