Getting Abs can be the toughest thing for people to get.

It has A LOT to do with diet, but once you have burned away the fat around your midsection there are several workouts you can do to work towards that shredded 6 pack.

Over the years I have taken numerous classes that include dance, pilates, yoga, surfing, crossfit, and many more that have an abs series worked into the class, so I decided to take a few of my favorites to make my daily ab workout.

The best thing is you can do it from ANYWHERE!

It doesn’t matter who you are or where you are, YOU can do this workout. It took me a little bit to work way my here, so my best advice is to give it a try, and if it’s too much at first, just shorten the amount of time and the number of crunches.

Do what it is best for your body, but don’t forget, your body won’t change unless you challenge it. Hope you enjoy, and good luck! Let me know know if you have any questions.
