Here is a great ab workout

Pike Walk
Stand with your legs straight and your hands flat on the floor. (You’ll probably need to begin with your hands a couple of feet in front of you.) Keeping your legs straight, walk your hands forward as far as possible. Concentrate on keeping your stomach tight, with your navel pulled in toward your pelvis. Then take tiny steps to walk your feet forward to your hands, ending in the starting position. Repeat the movement for a set of five repetitions.

Straight-Arm Side Bridge
Lie on your left hip with the outer side of your left leg flat on the floor and your upper body propped up on your left arm. (The arm should be straight, palm on the floor.) Pushing against the floor with your left arm, raise your hips and legs off the floor and simultaneously lift your right arm straight up in the air so your body forms a T. Hold for a second, then lower your hips and right arm. Do six repetitions per side.

Glute Bridge with Abduction
Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor. Raise your hips so your lower back is off the floor. Then, holding this bridge position, straighten your right leg and move it out to the side as far as possible. (Don’t let your hips drop.) Slowly bring the leg back in, lower your foot to its starting position, and slowly lower your hips to the floor. Repeat with your left leg. Do six repetitions to each side.

Hindu Pushup
Start with your feet shoulder-width apart and your butt high in the air. Look back at your heels. Bend your arms at the elbows, moving your head toward the ground while keeping your legs straight. Then lower your hips (but don’t allow them to touch the floor) as you push up with your arms. Finish with your head up and your back arched. Then push yourself back up to the starting position. Do eight to 10 repetitions.

Hey friends! My name is Sarah and I am a co-founder of Sweat Blood Nation. Like my brother, Jake, I am dedicated to bringing you the latest and greatest in all things health and fitness. I, however, will be focusing more on the ladies side of workouts and nutrition. You can always feel free to send me an email at our SBN address (in this blog’s description). I want you to know that I am here to help you achieve your goals, whatever they may be.

A little bit about me…

I am 18 years old and I have been working in a gym for about 3 years now. When I was younger the last thing on my agenda was working out. To add to my unhealthy childhood, I’m Italian so I absolutely loved to eat whatever salty, sweet, or greasy foods I could get my hands on. Right around the time I started high school, I realized that I was not happy with the way my body was looking and performing. I set some high goals for myself, (some of which included losing a whopping 50 pounds!), and hit the gym with my super athletic mother. About 4 years later, I am an aspiring figure competitior, and, while I can’t say I have achieved every last one of my fitness goals, I am living an active and healthy lifestyle. I am living proof that any transformation is possible!

That’s where Sweat Blood Nation comes in. I am making it my mission to help anyone and everyone accomplish any health or fitness goals. So, what are you waiting for? Come join our Nation!
