♥ click to download and print (http://www.blogilates.com/wp­ content/uploads/2014/12/30­day­ab­challenge­2.png) ♥ Hey guys!

I am sooooo excited to share with you the first ever Blogilates 30 day Flat Abs Challenge (http://www.blogilates.com/wp­ content/uploads/2014/12/30­day­ab­challenge­2.png)! To complete the challenge, all you have to do is check mark the moves after you complete them each day. You also have to drink the number of water cups listed each day (minimum). That’s it!

It starts o䍣 pretty simple on day 1 but by day 30 you will be an abs master! There are 2 things I wanted to achieve here with you:

1. I wanted to constantly challenge you by increasing the reps every single day. Result? You get stronger and fitter.

2. I wanted to also challenge you to drink more water. Why? Because when you’re dehydrated, your body holds on to more, and you get bloated. So drink up to flush your body out! The cups indicate the amount BEYOND what you normally drink.

Ab moves for the month:

The Roll­Up.

Did you know 6 crunches equals one of these? Yup. Do them.

The Criss­Cross.

Bring your shoulder towards your knee, not your elbow. And be sure to lift your shoulder blades high o䍣 the mat!

(http://www.blogilates.com/wp­ content/uploads/2014/12/double­leg­lift.gif)

The Double Leg Lift.

Press your heels together, press your lower back into the mat and lower your legs down and back up. Inhale as you go down and exhale when you go up.

Ankle Reaches.

Keeping your legs straight and your toes pointed, reach your fingers toward your ankles! Use your abs, not your neck!

(http://www.blogilates.com/wp­ content/uploads/2014/12/reverse­crunch.gif)

The Reverse Crunch.

Cross your ankles and lift your bottom o䍣 the floor. Total core control here!

Please invite your friends, co­workers, and family members to join in on this challenge! I wanted to create something that was simple enough to do and squeeze into your day. I know that sometimes doing the monthly workout calendars can be intimidating and requires time and major commitment.

For those of you doing the #JanYOUary calendar with me, yes you can do the 30 Day Flat Abs Challenge alongside the regular calendar or the beginner’s calendar. Oh by the way, I am working on Beginner’s 2 for you guys! So watch out for

Not sure where i came across this. But I decided to add it to my November goals (NOT that I expect "flat abs" by the end of it.) I'm not sure I've ever made a more strained "hrrrnnnggg" noise as that 5th roll­up. Got it all done though. *\o/* 1 △

Is there any way to upload photos on here? I'm on day 15 of the 30 day flatter tummy challenge and I wanted to share some photos to show that it works! I have a long way to go but I have a muffin top and big tummy with no definition after having a baby and c section http://www.blogilates.com/blog/2014/12/29/30­day­flat­abs­challenge/

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share that I am currently on day 27 and I definitely see the results. I'm not sporting a six pack by any means but I feel slimmer and haven't had any bloating since starting this challenge. My tummy is looking flat now and I had a very slight muffin top before starting. It's great! 1 △

You might want to keep a good diet­ it will make you feel happier + you will be slimmer faster....  REMEMBER TO DRINK LOADS OF WATER :)  hope that helps :)

Hi, I was wondering after you finish this month what is the best way to keep up the same level of fitness, as I know you need consistency for a more permanent shift. Would you recommend repeating the number http://www.blogilates.com/blog/2014/12/29/30­day­flat­abs­challenge/

Coffee has a LOT of added sugar and dairy (NOT good for losing weight) So I would recommend cutting back, having it once or twice a week. 1 △

there are videos hat contain all of these moves but they are spread out. Try the beginners Pilates video (day 1 of the beginner calendar video) since it has almost all of these moves

should I do cardio workouts before this everyday??

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › AlbertaRose94 • a month ago

I've completed the third line. I just realized I've been doing the leg lifts wrong. I was doing them as alternating, not as double. No wonder it's felt so brutal! As I said on the Thigh challenge, I didn't understand why there was 12 days of doing exercises 1­3 ten times, and 6 days doing exercise 4 ten times. Now that I've completed Day 18, it makes perfect sense. My abdominal area is getting stronger, which is helping with my belly fat. Today after doing all five exercises 10 times I thought "I'm supposed to do these 22 times?!" My next thought was "No, I'm supposed to increase these five exercises by a count of 1 over the next 11 days and finish up with 22 times.

Try putting a pillow under your lower back just to support. If it still hurts, you're doing something wrong. Try changing the way you do some of the exercises? Maybe you're accidentally hitting something you're not supposed to be hitting.

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › Vip Med > Saranya • 6 days ago

u should try some stretching exercices after doing the abs workout that will make feel way better

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › jaselyn • 2 months ago

I always hurt my neck and my lower spine while doing ab exercises. I try to concentrate on my core but my neck still feels strained. Any good solutions? thanks!

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › AlbertaRose94 > jaselyn • a month ago

I found that by laying on my arm and having a slight angle to my legs when doing the laying down ones, it prevents neck strain.

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › isabella > jaselyn • 2 months ago

Maybe go to a chiropractor or physio

I think she meant to say that the number of cups of water indicated in the challenge should be additional to what you usually drink a day (:

If it says "5 roll ups" does this mean we only do 5 of those roll ups?  or we do it 25 times?

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › AlbertaRose94 > julienei • a month ago

It means on day 1 you do 5, day 2 you do 6, day 3 you do 7, day 4 you do 8, Day 5 you do 9, Day 6 you do 10......

△   ▽ • Reply • Share › Agustina Canonica > DhiirahStrife • 2 months ago

Yes, It does. But I recommend you to do the begginers callendar first because It will teach you to do many of the movement you see in here and in the right way, also for not just workout your abs, the rest of your body its immportant too. I hope this helps! Good luck!

If I do the arm, waist, thigh, stomach and butt 30 day challenges as well as burning around 100 calories by walking my dogs every day, will I see and feel results? I heard you're supposed to do these 30 day challenges with the calendar but I'm not, will I still see results even though I'm not doing the calendar?

I did exactly what you wrote, +30­90 minutes of cardio depending on my time constraints and lost 10 pounds. I walked my dog around the neighborhood but my area is hilly.
