Who really loves “love handles”, anyway???
 
Answer: nobody. That’s why today we’re dedicating today’s workout to eliminating them… permanently! In this newest edition of our “Problem Areas” series I’m sharing one of my favorite core workouts to tone and tighten your midsection. We’re especially going to hit the lateral obliques with this one to shred the love handles area. Bu-bye forever, love handles!

While this is an amazing at-home workout to sculpt your core, you have to combine it with a proper diet and cardio in order to lose unwanted weight. Luckily T&T has you covered! Click here for some of my favorite healthy recipes and here for some amazing cardio workouts.

    There are some great workouts here! Thank you! My question is how many times a week should we do abdominals? There are so many different workouts I’m a little overwhelmed and unsure how to incorporate them all to see results?? What do you suggest?

      Great question, Jada! You can take your abs through a light workout 5-7 days/week. If you’re really working them over I would advise at least 1 day of rest/recovery in between workouts. Everyone is going to respond to these workouts a little differently; let pain/soreness be your guide and you should be good to go! (I would probably recommend this one 3 times/week with a day in between).
