Salubrious Scoop: Awesome abs and booty workout!

People are always looking to tone up. 

We all want a well-rounded butt that’s tight and abs that are flat.  Aside from that, you need to be strong in these areas to support your trunk and keep pain and dysfunction away.

You can do this workout anywhere and with very little or no equipment.  You can easily do this 2-3 days a week with a rest day in between and see results in 4 weeks.  I would recommend changing it up after 6-8 weeks max and give the body something else to be challenged with. 

This will prevent plateauing and increase your strength and results.

You can download any timer app and set up a Tabata workout. A Tabata is 8 rounds of 20 seconds of work with only 10 seconds of rest.  It is very effective for burning fat and boosting metabolism.  I like to do multiple Tabata’s when doing core and glutes.  It gives me a really challenging workout with great results.

When I had the gym, this was a crowd favorite!  Try it out for a few weeks and give me your feedback in the comments below if you like.
