Amazing Abs :)






INSTRUCTIONS:

Part 1 – 3 minutes of 10/10 seconds intervals (no rest interval)
Set your timer for 9 rounds of 10 seconds and 10 seconds intervals. You will be doing Kick Ups and Mountain Climber Peaks back to back without a break for 3 minutes straight. You have 10 seconds for each exercise and your goal is to push at your max effort during this interval.

Kick Ups
This is the starting position. Your hands are underneath your shoulders and your arms extended. Keep your abs tight, jump and switch legs.
Mountain Climber Peaks
This exercise is almost like a regular Mountain Climber except that you will be jumping much higher. In the first picture is your starting position and in the second picture you can see how high you have to jump when switching legs.
Part 2 – 6 minutes of 10/30 seconds intervals
Set your timer for 9 rounds of 10 seconds and 30 seconds intervals. You will be doing Side Plank Knee Tuck (left side up), Side Plank Knee Tuck (right side up), and Prisoner Get Ups back to back with 10 seconds intervals in between. Do as many reps as you can for each exercise during each 30 second interval and write your reps down.
 My scores-
Left side: 11, 11, 10
Right side: 11, 11, 9
Prisoner: 6, 6, 6
Side Plank Knee Tuck
Keep the supporting arm fully extended and your hand underneath your shoulder. Keep your abs tight throughout the exercise. If you are beginner and the knee tuck is too hard for you, then do just the plank lift.
Prisoner Get Up
Beginners you guys can use your hands for support if this is too hard for you. Try to stand up and lay back down as many times as you can.
Part 3 – 3 minutes of 10/10 seconds intervals (no rest interval)
Set your timer for 9 rounds of 10/10 seconds intervals. You will be doing the Plank Jumps and Knee Hugs back to back for 3 minutes straight. There is no rest interval in between these two exercises so you have to move really fast. Don’t bother with counting the reps just make sure that you are pushing to the limit.
Plank Jump
You want to keep your abs really tight, arms extended and hands underneath your shoulders. Don’t drop your hips when you are in the plank position.
Knee Hug
Start by laying on your back with your arms open and legs just a few inches off of the ground. Squeeze your abs and sit up to hug your knees.
