ABS Workout: Loaded Hip Dip Abs Exercise

We are working on our abs and legs today! Check out this awesome video of a loaded hip dip exercise from the Fitness Youtube Channel!

This one has always been a bit of a tough move for me since I am so hip heavy. However, I can’t deny how good it is for the body!

It really targets those deep ab muscles and shows no mercy! This exercise can be done with basically any weight from dumbbells to kettlebells. This particular example is showing a medicine ball. I don’t have any at home, but I have plenty of free weight options I can use instead.

To up the ante you can add the 8lb ball on your hips and really get to work. Definitely going to be adding these to my routine! They are great for your obliques, abdominals and legs. A fantastic way to work on your balance as well!

Workout With Stability Ball: Dancing Bug Abs Exercise

Time to work those abs again!!

Today I’ve got an awesome video from the Youtube Fitness Channel that you will like a lot! It’s challenging and require concentration and it works pretty much every muscle in the body!

I actually really love this move because I can do it–plus it’s really fun!

You can do it while watching tv or even with the kids. The playful nature of the move is very deceptive though because this one is actually really tough!

You may have seen this move without the ball which is totally normal, this time though you are trying to keep the ball balanced and from falling on you. You are working your abs and your legs all in one movement.

Sometimes I see the exercise ball and get so bored so quickly but this one is actually cool to do because while your abs are getting a workout you have to use your brain to actually keep the ball from falling! I also love the fact that you are working pretty much every single muscle in your body!

When I tried this move I definitely wasn’t the smoothest at it, but it was fun once I got the hang of it. Keeping this large ball from falling down was the biggest challenge, but once I got over the awkwardness I started to feel the burn pretty much every you can think of. 🙂

Awesome Abs Workout: Scissor Lifts

Time to work those abs again! Let’s face it, ab workouts can sometimes get boring really quickly. Especially if you are doing the basic moves like crunches or bicycles. Be sure to try these scissor lifts for adding a new move to your routine!

These are best done on the floor (like most ab exercises) and will challenge new muscles! These are a great way to tone up the legs too!

We are back on the floor working on our abs again this week! These look super easy but are deceptively hard! 

When I do these I feel like I can feel every single ab muscle begging for mercy! What I love about this particular video are the different leg positions for varying degrees of difficulty. You can bend your legs or straighten them!

These are fantastic to multi task while binge watching your favorite show!

Awesome Abs Workout – Upright Super Crunch Abs Exercise

Time to work those abs! Today we have another fantastic abs exercise from Fitness Magazine. Instead of lying on the ground, here is a great workout you can do with an exercise ball.

Don’t you love standing abs exercises? I think I pretty much love anything that doesn’t involve a crunch. What I love most about this move is that it not only focuses on the abs but on balance as well.

Abs workouts on the floor can get really boring really fast, and if you have a toddler around like I do, they theink it’s a great time to sit on mommy’s tummy. Standing gives a bit more control of the movement!

Another thing that is great about this move is that you can take your time and make it happen. There is no rush and all of the muscles that are needed are targeted. You can add this to the end of a cardio workout or to your existing abs routine!

If you don’t have a resistance ball I recommend using a dumbbell and holding each end upright. 

The slow movement not only targets multiple parts but forces you to stand on leg with control. Slow burn for sure!
