May Abs Challenge #8 and #9
I slacked off yesterday and forgot about the MAC with all the pancake stuff I have goin’ on! Check my last post to see if you were a winner of some deelish’ protein pancakes. I’m going to put 2 moves into today’s ab challenge since I forgot to yesterday
Now onto today’s move…
I got these from Oxygen Magazine. I didn’t snap a picture so I got these for ya instead.
1) Double Reverse Crunch
Set Up: Lie faceup on a mat with your legs bent, feet flat on the floor. Place your hands lightly behind your head [A].
Action: Keeping contact between your mid-back and the mat, raise your tailbone from the floor as you direct your knees toward your chest. At the same time, lift your shoulders and upper back from the ground. Pause, then slowly return your upper and lower body to the starting position [B]. Complete 12 reps.
2) Scissor Kick
Set Up: Lie faceup on a mat. Place your hands underneath your lower back or extend them along the sides of your body. Keeping your legs straight, raise them a few inches from the ground [A].
Action: Slowly cross one leg overtop of the other in a scissoring motion, keeping them lifted from the ground at all times. One motion with each leg counts as one repetition. Aim for 15 to 20 reps [B].
Since there are 2 exercises, do 2 sets of each.
Get those abs!










Thanks for more moves! I’ve been sneaking them in when I can. I’ve added some of them to the power yoga classes I teach (hope you don’t mind!).
Heck no I don’t mind! Sharing is caring

Hey Bess! I’ve been reading your blog for a while and wanted to say thanks for posting the Ab challenge. I’ve been loving it so far!
