5 Day Ab Challenge: Day 3

3 Rounds, Little to No Rest


Flutter Kicks- 30 reps (15 each side)


Start by lying flat on your back on a mat with your arms by your sides and your palms down. Extend your legs fully out with a slight bend in your knees. Lift your heels about 6 inches off the floor. Make small, rapid up and down scissor-like motions with your legs. The key is to focus on having your midsection do all the work and to keep your abs constantly contracted throughout the exercise.


Side v-ups- 20 reps (10 each side)


Lie on your side with your bottom arm laid out beside you and the other arm held beside your head. Crunch up towards your hip and raise both legs at the same time contracting your oblique's  at the top of the motion. Lower both your legs and upper body back down to the floor and repeat.

Push Through- 30 reps
The focus of this exercise is to push the hands inside the legs. As you push through, contract your abdomen voluntarily to obtain the best possible result.
