A 10 minute ab workout might sound like a piece of cake, but you’ll soon see that it can give you great results in very little time. We’ve combined both strengthening and cardio movements in this exercise to give you both ab/core development and fat shaving movements. We encourage you to try not to take long breaks in between sets or exercises to really get your heart and blood pumping for maximum results.

Having a strong core and abs are a vital piece of general health as they help keep our bodies upright and our spines straight. Since this is a quick workout, you may find yourself doing this twice a day and anywhere from 3 – 5 times per week for best results. Keep in mind that good nutrition and a low carb diet will aid in your quest for a tight tummy. Additional cardio will also help you shave those last few pieces of belly fat.
