15 Min ENGAGING ABS & Core Workout | Dumbbells & Bodyweight

Показать описание
15 minute NO REPEAT ab & core workout using bodyweight and dumbbell as resistance for a perfect ab routine to be completed post main workout or even on its own!

The timer will be on for 40 seconds of work, 5 seconds to get into position for next exercise!

For this workout you will need a weight (the dumbbell I am using for your reference is 8kg) and a mat.

Ensure to take your time moving from one movement to the next... if it takes you more than 5 seconds to get ready it’s ok! Ensure you are aligned, lower back pressed to mat and core braced.

OPPOSITE HAND TO FOOT REACH

REVERSE CRUNCH
SIT UP DUMBBELL IN ONE HAND
SIT UP DUMBBELL IN ONE HAND (switch)

CRUNCH (dumbbell on chest)
BUTTERFLY CRUNCH TO LOWER DUMBBELL
BODYWEIGHT TUCK
HOVER TO ALT FOOT REACH
PLANK TO SIDE PLANK (one side)
PLANK TO SIDE PLANK (switch side)
ALTERNATING SINGLE LEG SIDE PLANK
PLANK LADDER
PLANK HIP TWIST

Aim to make each rep count! Try to think about using the upper abs to lift during a crunch movement. Press lower back to mat during leg lowers whether both or single leg.

During the planks, aim to keep hips down and shoulders relaxed away from ears. Keep gaze straight down.

During Deadbug draw attention to pushing lower back to mat. Imagine a hand is under your back and you are trying to squash it!

Slow, precise, engaged, realigned!

I don't know how Caroline managed these with her 8kg in good, steady form. I was already wobbly with my 5lbs (2.2kg) especially on that plank to side plank 😂
Caroline, you are a superwoman!

I thought I disliked exercising all this time while I was doing hiit and cardio workouts but after trying out your isometric and dumbbell workouts, I realised I genuinely enjoyed doing them and even though I didn't workout for long maybe 30 mins at max at least I wasn't forcing myself to do it, thanks a lot caroline ig I'm gonna start enjoying my workout session from now.

Yes !! I love Caroline’s core and abs workouts. The best and most effective for me personally. I have the best muscle tone now at 42 than I have ever had in all my years of working satisfying !!!

This might be my favorite Caroline ab workout! Not only worked the abs and core, but also the arms, shoulders, and back with all the dumbbells and plank work. So glad I did this after a leg workout because my arms would have been even more fatigued!

Holy. Crap. I focused on core yesterday and did this video 3x (3 full rounds), and I have to say, even though I’ve built up a very strong core over the last few years, this is the sorest my abs have been in awhile. Loving your workouts, especially the weighted ab videos! ❤

Pretty challenging - even as a standalone workout!
Proud to say I only sued my 5kg weights for the single side deadbugs and otherwise I used my 7kgs: a first for me thus far.
I also paused a lot less than I usually do!
Grateful to be part of this community and to have access to such wonderful workouts!
Thanks Caroline!
