Graeme's Ab Circuits

Graeme's Ab Circuits

Complete the following body weight circuit with absolutely NO rest in between exercises

1. 45-degree lunges (instead of stepping straight out in front, step out and to the side at a 45-degree angle, push off your heel back to start position and alternate) x 15 reps per leg

2. Jumping jacks x 50 reps (fast as you can go, full range of motion)

3.  Push-ups x 12 reps (if you can’t do regular push-ups, do them off your knees until you get stronger)

4. Lying hip extensions x 20 reps 

5. Burpees x 10 reps 

6. Squat jumps x 12 reps (explode through the jump; don’t sacrifice form on the lowering phase)

7. Plank x 30 secs (keep back flat, abs tight, body weight is on forearms and toes only)

8. High knees x 30 secs (as fast as you can go, bringing knees up as high as possible)

—> This is one circuit.  Rest 90 secs and repeat 1-3 times, depending on your fitness level.

—> Include 3-5 cardio workouts each week
