Baby Steps

I have not had much time to blog lately... Midterms! But I wanted to post this photo that I created using a quote by Mark Twain taken from my Health Psychology book! Enjoy! And remember, baby steps... A little bit at a time!

ABS!

One of my favorite muscle groups to train are my abs. I was very fortunate to have had four children, not need a c-section and not get a single stretch mark on my tummy!! Genetics and cocoa butter are my secret. Like I said before, I didn't start working out til 2010 when my youngest was 2.
Ok back to abs,  I try to train my abs at least 2-3 times a week. Every other day is best (give at least 48 hours in between).

Here are a few of my favorite ab exercises that I do (I switch it up a lot, but I usually do at least 3-4 per session, the eagle crunches are just an addition that I do in the am and pm):

One of the most effective Crunches you can do....

SO I have hardly anytime to post this right now...(I'm supposed to be studying for my Biology of cancer midterm!) I just want to share one of the most EFFECTIVE ab exercises that I have found... it is AWESOME! One of my favorite yoga instructors taught me this! Literally if I am running out the door and need a quick ab boost, so to speak, I do at least 20 of these per side....

THE EAGLE CRUNCH!
