April is for Abs

by Jenni in


You may have seen quite a few ab workouts already this month everywhere. That is because almost everyone has set aside April for abs. It makes sense though, doesn't it? We are all trying to get those flat abs before bikini season comes and what better way than to start up some great April challenges this month! If you are looking for some fun challenges, I would recommend Fitnessista's April plank challenge. It is not too late to start and it is sure to bring some great results! 

For me, yoga really works my upper abs, but my lower abs are the area that need some help. Thankfully, running keeps things where they should be, but sometimes a girl (or guy) just needs an ab-centric workout to get that definition again. Both of these workouts below will help tone, tighten, and define that core so we are ready when summer [finally] comes! 

PopSugar Ultimate Ab Workout

This one was made for us today! It is all about getting abs ready for bikini's and has some pretty fun moves that you may not have done before. This will be a serious workout, and all in 10-minutes! This would be great to complete after a cardio workout, or, on it's own when the day it just. too. busy. 

POP Pilates Intense Ab Workout

This Cassey Ho workout is an intense 10-minute workout that will leave your lower abs screaming as well. Seriously, if we do not have some serious toning after these, we may be dead. This one will be great after a cardio workout, or, how I will be using it is as a yoga warm-up today. Both will give you a great workout and get us closer to that bikini body.
