At Home Cardio & Core Workout

Welcome to Week 3 of Bikini Bootcamp 2017! Over the next 8 weeks I am going to be posting some of the toughest MFit workouts ever. These videos will all include strength training, fat burning cardio, and stretching.  I will be giving away some of my best tips and exercises to burn fat and build muscle. Let’s get swimsuit ready!

Today’s workout is all about the core. We are going to get your abs ready for the beach.

In order to get flat abs you need to do several things. First, you need to eat clean (lean protein, veggies, unprocessed foods, low sugar) and drink lots of water. As far as exercise goes, you need to do a blend of total body resistance training, high intensity cardio, and isolated core exercises. Lucky for you, we will be doing all of those things today! So follow along with the workout and keep your diet in check, and you will be good to go!
