15 minute NO REPEAT ab & core workout using bodyweight and dumbbell as resistance for a perfect ab routine to be completed post main workout or even on its own!

The timer will be on for 40 seconds of work, 5 seconds to get into position for next exercise!

For this workout you will need a weight (the dumbbell I am using for your reference is 8kg) and a mat.

Ensure to take your time moving from one movement to the next... if it takes you more than 5 seconds to get ready it’s ok! Ensure you are aligned, lower back pressed to mat and core braced.

Aim to make each rep count! Try to think about using the upper abs to lift during a crunch movement. Press lower back to mat during leg lowers whether both or single leg.

During the planks, aim to keep hips down and shoulders relaxed away from ears. Keep gaze straight down.

During Deadbug draw attention to pushing lower back to mat. Imagine a hand is under your back and you are trying to squash it!

Slow, precise, engaged, realigned!
