Bikini Ready: My Secret to Flat Abs ;-D

I am a P90X lover. I own the DVDs and they work wonders. I brought them in March and used them for a month straight and got unbelievable tone… Then I went on vacation for a week to Montreal, Toronto and New York… (You know what happened.) It has been three weeks of “forgetting” to do my workouts. But, today I turn over a new leaf! My secret, which you may have guessed already is….EXERCISE & THE ALEXANDRIA DIET.

 

So I hunted down the P90X AB RIPPER X workout for you all because I truely enjoy it, it works, AND it is only 16 minutes long. The first week is the hardest, so push through!!! After doing the video (seen at the bottom) a few times you may not need to watch it anymore so I have written you a cheat sheet:

Level 1: 15 to 20 reps of each exercise below

Level 2: 20 to 25 reps of each exercise below

1. In & Out
2. Seated Bicycle (50 Reps- 25 forward & 25 backwards)
3. Seated Crunchy Frog
4. Crossed Leg/Wide Leg Sit-Up
5. Fifer Scissor –> These kill me every time!!
6. Hip Rock ‘N Raise
7. Pulse-Up (Heels to the Heavens)
8. Roll-Up / V-Up Combo
9. Oblique V-Up
10. Leg Climb
11. Mason (Kayak) Twist (40 Reps)

Post-Workout Stretches: Cobra and Child Pose

If you try these workout AND it doesn’t hurt afterwards… UMMM, you must be freaking ripped already & you need to tell me all of  your secrets.

 

A few things to keep in mind. When doing the P90X Ab Ripper X program you should do this workout every other day.  Do not try to push yourself more than your body can handle. If  it hurts then stop. (And, as many workout videos say, you should consult  a physician before trying a new workout. I will not be  liable if you hurt yourself immediately before, while using, or after these exercises  in any way, shape or form while.) And forgive me, it is not in HD.

Let me know how it goes by posting your thoughts below.
