Monday Motivation

If you are anything like me...working out & eating right on the weekends doesn't always go as planned (Yes, THIS happened Saturday night). I try not to stress myself out about it, rather I make it my goal to follow a healthy regime starting every Monday. Below is an amazing 8 minute ab workout courtesy of Brooke Burke/Modern Mom. I've been doing this ab routine for about 3 years & it really works if you stick to it (and add a healthy mix of cardio + strength training).


If you don't feel like watching, here's the gist: 
20 regular crunches
20 bicycle crunches 
20 crunches with legs extended vertically
20 crunches with knees dropped to the right
20 crunches with knees dropped to the left
20 crunches pulling your right leg vertically while lowering your left & vise versa. 
Repeat 3 times & your done! Only takes 8 minutes so we have no excuses :) -O
