This quick and effective routine is a throwback to my college swimming days. Our team would do a similar routine 4 days a week! The goal of this workout is to keep moving for the whole 7 minutes, even if you have to modify along the way.

The best part about this routine? You can substitute or swap moves to change it up-it’s really something that’s feasible to do every day! Below is this week’s ab combo! I’m thinking of sharing a new routine every Friday 🙂Kelseylynnb brings you a 7 minute ab workout that is quick, efficient, and effective!

AMRAP (as many reps as possible) for 30 seconds per exercise.

I use the Gymboss app to set up 30 second intervals. Screenshot below!

  • Minute 2:
    Reverse crunches feet vertical (this is a controlled lift, do not use momentum)
    V-ups (advanced: use a 10lb weight to crunh, beginner: legs straight on the floor and roll up)
  • Minute 3:
    Legs at 90 degrees crunches (beginner: feet on the ground)
    Alternating elbow to knee alternating (driving crunch with shoulder, not arm)
  • Minute 4:
    Bicycle crunches
    Flutter kicks, shoulders lifted
