20 min Abs Workout | Cardio geared to toning abs | Walk at Home | Improved Health

Today's workout is a shorter 20 minute abs workout. It's all cardio but the exercises are focused working and toning the abs. We'll start with a 5 minute warm-up then switch to 45 second intervals for abs and finish the last 15 seconds of each round with a walk. At the 16 minute mark we'll switch back to 30 second intervals for our cool-down. We'll finish off the workout with some simple stretches. The total step count for this workout is 2368 steps.

Congratulations on finishing the 7 days in our 3rd series!!! Ideally, complete the workout for 4 weeks before advancing to more challenging intervals. Over the next few months, I will add new interval training workouts to bump up the challenge again so you see results.

What more could we ask for … Cardio and abs combined in a way that is both enjoyable and effective. You have carved out something that is missing on you tube because you respect the need for your subscribers to be challenged without wearing out the body. Love the high arms and pull downs ❤

Love this third series!! Tough but ooooh, sooo good.😀

Series 3, Week 1 done and I'm looking forward to Week 2. Thanks, Jules!

[marydmyterko]

All 12 weeks completed. I'll be seeing you for intervals and other wonderful sessions and, now the weather is great, some hikes along our Colorado trails. Thanks to you, Jules for your motivation and guidance. Much love, Mary

Didn't do the series (yet!) but this one popped up and I figured "why not?" Thank you from the zipper of my jeans!!!! The last song was awesome -- well chosen.

[juanitahill]

Yes. Finished all three series. Looking forward to other videos you have. Thank you!

I was particularly stressed today and this workout did the trick! Working out is indeed a magic pill for improving health. Thanks!

Hey Jules....looking below at the comments, looks like I finished Series 3, 11 months I just finished Series 3 today and it did go by fast again. Now all 3 Series are done again and it makes me feel good that I can still do them and a little easier this time. For the next couple of weeks, I do have to take it easy, I am having a minor surgery to remove skin cancer just below my right collar bone and the doctor wants me to take it easy, but she said easier workouts are ok, just to be careful and not overdue. I am looking at the Gentle workouts will probably be good, I just don't want to not do exercise and I will be walking every morning as long as it doesn't rain. Anyway I feel that I have accomplished a lot with you and your workouts, thank you for all of your encouragement. Hope you are having a great weekend....take care and God Bless

Hi Jules....Week #2 done, I think I did good, day #6 I did modify 1 of them, I didn't do all 3 planks but I did do 1, the last one, kind of surprised myself. A few years back I was able to do 3 minutes but I feel as though I am doing good for my age. Again thank you so much for being here for all of us who want to be able to function properly. On to a stretch workout and 3 minute breathing exercise. I hope you are have a beautiful day and God Bless....Anne

Week 2 has been so much better. No achy quads. I loved this workout so much. I think this program 3 is awesome. So much variety. So happy I found your videos.

[annesneed]

Well Jules, all 3 series are done, I just can't believe how fast the time went, since my wellness checkup I have lost another 5 lbs. I am so grateful to you for all the encouragement you gave to me through all of the workouts from the very beginning. I am going to continue to do at least 2 Interval w/o's 1 long w/o and some of the fun w/o's in between. Of course I will be doing Abs, stretching and that wonderful 3 min breathing exercise. I still want to keep in touch and let you know my progress. I hope you are having an awesome weekend....take care and God

I’m from the UK I’m 73 young I have just finished the 7 day interval training Week 1 🤗🤗🤗& I have really enjoyed the exercises

[bethhasilo]

Whooo Hooo! I started Feb 1, 2024 with choosing random exercises from your site when I first found you. On Mar 17th I started Level 1
for 4 weeks, then Level 2 for 4 weeks & this morning I finished Level 3 for 4 weeks. When I started my BP Jan 31st was 147 / 92 heart rate 93! It's now 119 / 80 heart rate 55!! I could just cry because I'm so happy!! I am noticing some physical changes but my goal was to get my BP down & because of you Jules, I did it. I can't thank you enough. May God Bless you & the work you do. Now I'm off to find the Level 4 Interval Training so I'm ready for tomorrow! 🤸🤸‍♀️🤸‍♂️

[annesneed]

Jules....Week #3 done, I can't believe how fast the week goes by. Day #6 is getting better, the only ones I have to modify are the burpee and I think it's the mountain claimer, I did do the plank, all 3 times, that is an accomplishment for me. I am on the way to Week #4, it's hard to believe I did all 3 series of workouts but it has paid off greatly. I am looking forward to doing some of your new workouts after this week. You have been a great inspiration to me, I am so glad found you you so much for all your hard work and for caring so much for all of us....have a great 4th of July weekend....God Bless....Anne

Hi Jules....did this class as a fill-in with Day 5 Kickstart Your Fitness...I will eventually do the 7-day of this series. I didn't do as well but I will continue to work on this. I love all the classes so far, I have 2 more days of the Kickstart and then I will be looking for a new series....thank you again for all your work in the series....take care, God Bless and Happy Resurrection Sunday coming up....Anne

[missygarcia]

I did it again by completing 4 weeks. I have gone down one size! So proud of myself and thankful for these fantastic videos, Jules! 😊💛

[barbmiller]

Just finished week 3 of Series 3. Such a wonderful boost to my every day activities. Looking forward to week 4. Take care.

[marydmyterko]

Week 3 of Series 3...DONE and I look forward to beginning Week 4 tomorrow! Thanks, Jules. And I bought a size 8 capri pants today!

[anuradhab]

The sweetest words today"this is your cool down"😂It took a while, but gradually the brain with the entire body accepted that the 15 sec break was on the same scale as the 45 sec w/o!!!!Then things moved relatively better.
Seriously though, everything about this series was so perfectly put together... appreciate every little nuance you bring in to make things doable and enjoyable...the last bit of music was👌Thank you, Jules...it was a privilege..💕

[ljoefgh]

I really appreciate your workouts. They are easy to follow (I am very uncoordinated!) while getting the heart rate up. Thank you for helping us get fit!
