Are you trying to tighten and tone your core so you can get noticeable definition? Do you want the flat-out truth on how to get abs? Then you need to STOP doing crunches. I explained all of that in last week’s blog post. (you can check that out here in case you missed it)
Crunches with your back on the floor are not the ticket to a slim midsection… in fact crunches actually kill your back. When it comes to exercising your abs always remember this… When it’s time to work your core, keep your back off the floor!
To tighten your tummy, you need to work your entire core—meaning all the muscles in your abdomen. The easiest – and best way to work your abs, crunch free is with plank. I created this Crunch free Ab workout specifically for busy women. You an do it anywhere (home, gym, hotel room) because there isn’t any equipment involved. No excuses!
This crunch free ab workout includes a specific and strategic set of exercises that will target and tone all of the muscles in your abs, without one single spine killing crunch! You can also add in one or two or the lower ab exercises I shared last week, and you’ll have a complete core workout. See me demo the exercises that make up this killer core workout that will tighten and tone your core (without doing a single crunch or hurting your back) in today’s episode of CCtv. After you’ve had a chance to watch, please let me a comment to let me know what you think about this workout.
For the best possible results complete this workout (at least) twice a week.
It works if you work it! So work it, you’re worth it!

Pin this workout so you’ll have it forever.
*FULL DISCLOSURE* A workout isn’t going to do much for your abs if you’re not following a meal plan that’s right for your body type and goal. Abs really are made in the kitchen… and you can’t out exercise a bad diet. The food is the hardest part though! From experience I know… If you’re struggling to stick to your diet – or if your diet continue to disappoint you, I’ve got your back! You may be struggling because of hormone imbalances, toxic build up and/or you may have metabolic dysfunction working against you. I did! Especially after taking all of the meds they prescribed me after my accident! That’s actually how I started learning as much as I do about metabolic dysfunction and how foods and toxins affect your ability to lose weight. If you’re struggling my free metabolic analysis will help you. Fill out this profile, then I’ll explain what’s going on and suggest a plan that will help you fix it so you can turn it around and start losing weight and feeling better fast.
