15 – 50 CORE BLAST {BODYWEIGHT WORKOUT}

Here we go Monday!

I’m pumped to get this week going! We’ve just come out of a gorgeous weekend full of lots of sunshine and warmth. I finally left my house for the first time in a tank top since last October(…?) and it feels great! Bring on the warm weather and sunshine because that makes me a happy girl. And when I’m happy, I have awesome workouts and amazing motivation to get things done. 

This workout is a total core blast, using reps of 15 and 50. There aren’t any weights included just you and your motivation to push through the reps. Be prepared to suffer through a few of these exercises, because some of the 50 reps are difficult to get through…but you can and YOU WILL!

This workout took me about 10 minutes to get through. The butt ups and spiderman planks were the hardest for me. Getting through 50 reps of those two exercises is some serious stuff! I may sound weak but that’s just it. My core needs to be strengthened and it is something that I will be focusing on in the upcoming weeks.

Remember to engage your core, suck the belly to the floor and engage those lower abs especially when working the knee tucks and knee hugs.
