All I Want For Christmas Is Abs Workout
Hi BodyRockers,
This is the last workout of this week, but don’t worry we will be doing exercise challenges over the weekend. Me and Freddy are leaving this evening for a weekend (you guys can guess where are we heading) to do some Burpees :) Charlie and Cali are staying at home with their aunt who will be taking care of them while we away. I have to say that I will miss them and especially Cali, because she sleeps with me every night. This makes me wonder – if I am having a hard time to leave our dogs just for one weekend, what about kids? I think that I will be that kind of crazy mother who won’t let them even walk to school by themselves. Anyway, have an amazing weekend and enjoy your workout! We will be updating from our trip.
Zuzana & Freddy.

Instructions:
This workout takes exactly 12 minutes and is divided into 3 parts, each of them 4 minutes long. In the first part of the workout you will be using your interval timer and your sandbag. Set your timer for 6 rounds and two intervals of 20 seconds each (or 12 rounds of one interval of 20 seconds – that’s the same thing). You will be doing the Triple Squat Action: 20 seconds of regular squats (all the way down), 20 seconds of half squats (get your thighs parallel to the ground) and 20 seconds of short pulses with your thighs parallel to the ground. There is no break in between the intervals. It is 4 minutes straight of pure burn out. I loaded my Sandbag with 15 kg of rice so it was really intense. If you are a beginner you want to start with less weight or just your own bodyweight.
In the second part of the workout you will be using your interval timer and dip station. The exercise that you will be doing is L – Sit – amazing exercise that will target your upper back and core muscles. You can manipulate the intensity of this exercise by choosing your own intervals. I set my timer for 16 rounds of two intervals – 10 seconds and 5 seconds. The 5 seconds were my work intervals and I had 10 seconds of rest in between them. It was pretty intense for me so if you are a beginner you might want to have longer rest intervals.
The last part of this workout is 4 minutes of two intervals – 10 seconds of rest and 50 seconds of max effort. Your goal is to complete as many rounds of Pick Up Jumps as you can during the 5o second intervals. You will pick up the sandbag over your head, do two jumps forward and place the sandbag on the ground. Pick up the sandbag again and do two jumps back. You will be jumping forward and backwards for each round – every time the sandbag touches the ground counts as 1 round. I completed 9, 7, 8, and 8 rounds during the 50 second intervals.
