Abs in a Hurry 10 minute workout: Melissa Bender (full length)

Hi Everyone!


Tonight's workout is a quickly! It focuses on strengthening, and toning your entire core. It hits all of the major muscles of your abdomen, while still incorporating some full body moves.


I had a super busy day today, so I was able to get in some additional exercise. While I was at work I got to go swimming with the kids for an hour. I also turned the incline on my treadmill all the way up, and walked for 20 minutes while reading on my kindle. Jesse was out running in the rain.


Jesse cooked us a delicious and healthy meal tonight. He made salmon fajita wraps, with spinach (I got plain greek yogurt on mine, and he used sour cream), and a bit of hot sauce on a flat out wrap. It was delicious, and a fun and different way to eat salmon. 


Have a wonderful evening, and enjoy the workout! There will be a new one up tomorrow!


Melissa



All Levels: As many reps as you can in each interval. 10 seconds of rest in between each exercise.

    Thanks for this workout! I'm always short on time after my runs, so this will help me to incorporate more core training!

    Just found your site, and love it! I did one of your 15 minute cardio blasts followed by this ab workout this morning. Thank you so much for sharing these! I also read your blog about building yourself into running, which really helped. I've wanted to run, but have been looking at the long haul which intimidated me, so I never end up doing it! Your blog helped me to see how to build up to it, and not worry about how much faster everyone else is around me. Thanks so much!
