9 Minute Core Tabata

Happy Wednesday!! Let me just say I’m so glad it’s this Wednesday, and not last Wednesday! Last Wednesday my husband left out of town to go help with my brother’s roof replacement in Logan, UT.  He left me home with the three kids AND our new puppy, Rocco. If you have seen my last few Instagram stories you know I struggled a bit last weekend… True Story: I don’t ever really swear (except when my double unders are sucking, but that doesn’t count).  Last weekend I just about dropped the F bomb (like screamed it) in front of my kids more than once. It was a very long 5 days and hats of to all you women who do it by yourselves regularly…yikes. Well, I’d like to say it was mostly because of the dog but who knows.  He is a pain in the bum but he sure is a cutie.

We all know abs are made in the kitchen but a little core work here and there certainly helps! Try this 9 minute workout while watching TV with your kids right in the comfort of your own living room!

    How many times would you try to do this 9 minute routine in a day? Just whenever you get 10 minutes to yourself? To exhaustion? I want to make sure I’m working but not risk injury. I’m just an unlucky klutz!

      Hi Tish! This is meant to be done once. Because it’s only 9 minutes you need to work at an intense pace.
