Yes we all know me for my booty and it’s crazy transformation from pancakes to poundcake lol but I do workout more than just my butt (it’s just my favorite thing to show off lol)
Here I take you guys through what my workouts usually look like on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
I break up my workouts like this: MWF Leg/Booty day – TTH Upper/Core day SAT Full body SUN Rest day.
I know it’s very different from most fit heads workout regimen but this is what works for me!
Here’s the workout breakdown:
– Plank ups: Be sure to focus on keeping your core tight z9flexed) while doing this exercise. This is a great one to keep that stomach on flat flat. You don’t need the TRX band to do this exercise but it does intensify it which I am all about a challenge.
TRY: 3 X 12 of these
– Cable pulldowns (front and back):
I know most people don’t do both front and back but I noticed doing both helps me target every part of my abs which is what I want. I didn’t just want definition at the top I wanted definition through my entire stomach. I am elevated because it allows me to get a curl when I go down and that is the most important part of this exercise. I would suggest using a pad because my knees were for sure on fire from doing this with 110 lbs with no pad like a dummy lol.
TRY: 3 X 12 of b both front and back back to back for a real burn!
– Overhead leg raises:
These targets both your upper abs and your core (yes they are two different things). You want to do slow controlled movements to really feel the burn and engage that core.Be sure to breathe in your nose and out your mouth.
TRY: 3 x 15
– Weighted sit ups:
I sometimes do sit-ups on a reclining seat for 1) back support and 2) to really hit and engage every part of my abs. This way I can really focus on my weak points and strengthen them because balancing on a seat tells all!
TRY THESE: with 25 lbs: 3 x 12
Russian twist:
I like doing Russian twist on a reclining chair because it allows me to sit back even more to really target those obliques.
SIDE NOTE: if you want your waist smaller add these to your weekly ab workout!!! These have helped me lose inches off my waist!!
Try: 3 x 20 with 25 lbs ✨Note if you’re trying to focus more on your core and not so much abs then try the TRX Plank up, Over head leg raises and the Russian twists.
– Single arm row variation:
I enjoy doing exercises where I can focus on a single side at a time. This ensures that your stronger side is not over compensating by trying to help your weaker side. For me my left is my weaker side compared to my right so this variation helps me strengthen both sides individually. Again do slow controlled movements and really squeeze that back once you pull back.
Ignore my crazy hair I was really putting in work lol.
I hope you guys enjoyed this!!!
