AbStar® Workouts

AbStar Workouts

AbStar workouts focus on strengthening your core muscles, but also strengthen arms, shoulders, chest, legs and glutes. These workouts are designed to be performed in the order described, if possible, at least three days each week. For better results, exercise five days each week while augmenting these home workouts with a walking, swimming or biking cardio workout. Always monitor how you feel, and stop if you become uncomfortable or feel pain.

Beginner Workout

• Perform exercises listed below in order, if possible.
• Perform 5 repetitions for each exercise, left and right sides, if applicable.
• Count slowly to two (one-thousand-one, one-thousand-two) on the up movement, then again on the down movement.
• Breathe as normally as possible.

Those 5 repetitions (reps) count as one set for a particular exercise. Once your first round, consisting of one set of each exercise, becomes non-challenging, add a second round. If a particular exercise feels too easy, feel free to add additional reps for that exercise.

Once you can comfortably perform two full rounds, it’s time to consider moving up to the intermediate workout. Great job!

Advanced Workout

• Perform 15 repetitions for each exercise, left and right sides, if applicable.
• Count slowly to two (one-thousand-one, one-thousand-two) on the up movement, then again on the down movement.

Once you can comfortably perform two full rounds, begin your next scheduled round by counting slowly to three on each up movement and down movement, instead of two. You will feel the increased difficulty immediately.
