ab program

We work abs three times per week, before the workout. The idea is if you wear your abs out first, they're going to worked hard and then continue to be worked all during your lifting that day.

Perform 2-4 (four is ideal) of the exercises as one circuit, with no rest in between. Rest for a minute and repeat three more times for a total of four circuits.

Hanging Leg Raises 15 reps -- I love this one!

Hip-ups 20 reps

Bicycles 25 reps

Reverse Bicycles 25 reps

Crunches 30 reps

Toes to Bar 15 reps

Mountain Climbers 20 reps each side

And cardio for 30-45 minutes, 3-6 times per week.

I know, I know--a lot of people hate cardio. I don't. But either keep making excuses, or just suck it up and get it done. Believe it or not, you begin to enjoy it.
