4 Step #AbWorkout that will get you RIPPED in no time

Don't spend your hard earned money going to the gym and hiring a personal trainer. With simple household items everyone has (literally a floor and a chair) you can get that 6 pack of your dreams. Start off slow if you're a beginner and you don't have to do all 4 steps at the same time, or even the same day. Starting off easy and slow is key for beginners. Doing too much at once can do more harm than good. Once you're used to the first two steps without any problems, go onto steps 3 and 4. I designed this Ab Workout with the thought in mind that not everyone has hours to spare working out. If you follow these instructions, it shouldn't take you more than 45 minutes to get this completed. Now, before I introduce you to the plan, let me get you to speed on the terms!

Sit Ups - Lay on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Place your hands behind your head. Keeping your head and neck straight, lift your upper body towards your knees. Continue to use your abdominals to lift your upper body until you are sitting upright. Slowly lower your body back down to the original position.

Abdominal Holds - Sit on the edge of a sturdy chair with your back straight and your knees bent. Hold onto the edges of the chair with fingers facing forward. Tighten your abs and raise your butt off the chair putting your weight onto your arms. Hold, then lower back down

Bicycle Crunches - Lay flat on your back with your feet in the air and your knees bent. Place your hands behind your head. Extend your left leg, pointing your toes up and bring your right knee towards your head. Touch your right knee with your left elbow. Push your right foot forward and bring your elbow back. Resume original position. Do the same thing again only reversing your knee and elbow.

Planks - Lay face down on the floor resting on your elbows and forearms. Lift your butt off the floor, shifting your weight onto your knees. Lift your knees, and balance on your toes, It's important to keep your back as straight as possible while you continue to hold. Lower your knees back to the floor

Side Crunches - Lay on your right side with your knees bent and your right arm extended. Place your left hand behind your head. Bring your head towards your hips keeping your right palm on the floor for balance. Lift both feet into the air and point your left elbow towards your feet. Lower your feet and head back down to the original position and repeat on the opposite side.

Now, time for the workout. If you do this 2-3 times a week, you should start to feel and see the difference in as little as 2 weeks!
