There is nothing more refreshing than a new year with a new outlook. Let’s be honest; Typically we make outrageous resolutions and promises, only to fall short. So this year, I’m making smaller changes in life to help improve my health and overall well-being, such as practicing meditation, tweaking my diet, exercising and reading more, and simply taking the time to appreciate the gift of life each day.
I find it difficult to make it to the gym with work, traffic, friends, responsibilities – I could continue to make up excuses. So this time around, I’m going to make that extra effort to not “namastay” in bed and get up 30 minutes earlier to focus on a quick but effective core workout. I’m sharing my favorite 20-minute ab workout, which burns the core without all of the sweat in the hair (hair: my top excuse for skipping a workout). This routine requires little space so it can be done almost anywhere. No excuses!
To start the new year with a fresh new outlook, you will need inspiring new active wear. Prints are always on my radar when shopping for inspirational gear because it’s fun and motivating to want to wear and be seen wearing. Give those black yoga pants a break and add some printed pieces to your active wear collection. I found all my 2016 motivation pieces from SearsStyle, the new destination for stylish and sophisticated active wear.
20-MINUTE AB ROUTINE:
Complete routine 3 times with 1-minute rest period in between
PLANK: 40 Seconds; 20-Second Rest
FLUTTER KICKS: 40 Seconds; 20-Second Rest
RIGHT SIDE PLANKS: 30 Seconds; 20-Second Rest
RUSSIAN TWIST: 40 Seconds; 20-Second Rest
LEFT SIDE PLANKS: 30 Seconds; 20-Second Rest
Relax and repeat!
