Are you ready to take your core to the next level?

One area of the body that I get asked about most-often here on T&T is the stomach. People are consistently asking how to make their stomach smaller, stronger, and better-defined.

It’s for you, my ab-conscious compadres, that I’m bringing you this all-new “Weekly Workout Plan“!

This “14-Day Core Workout Challenge” consists of 14 great workouts for you to do over the next 2 weeks designed sp ecifically to melt inches from your sides, strengthen your core muscles, and ultimately just shred your abs.

Today is a great day to start – let the challenge begin! …

This 15-minute ab workout with weights will take your abs to a whole new level of strength and definition. These are the best dumbbell ab exercises to tone your midsection and tighten up your six-pack. So grab your weights and lets get to work.

15-Minute Core Workout With Weights

Dumbbell Dying Bug – reciprocal limb motion to work all layers of your abs.
Double Leg Raise with Dumbbell Jack – works upper and lower abs.
Accordion Crunch with Military – a great core balance exercise.
Dumbbell Heel Touches – great resisted exercise for the obliques and upper abs.
Dumbbell Pike Crunch – add a new level of difficulty with a dumbbell between your feet.
Side Plank Hip Dip – hold the weight on your lateral hip to add resistance to this oblique motion.

{Please keep reading below for a detailed description of each of these exercises and this workout.}

Are you sick of doing hundreds of sit ups and crunches and not seeing the ab results you desire?

Stop wasting your time and start adding some resistance to your core workouts.

Think about it – when was the last time you did 3 sets of 20 – 30 reps of crunches? I dare say the last core workout you did probably included these types of sets/reps.

Now think about the last time you did some barbell squats. Did you do 3 sets of 30? Absolutely not!

You probably added weight until you could perform 3 sets of 10 reps with a little struggle on numbers 8-10.

So the question needs to be asked – as you’ve been getting stronger and progressing resistance on all your exercises, why haven’t you applied the same principle to your abs/core?!

If you want to see progress and if you want your abs to get stronger and more defined you have to be doing some kind of resisted work… [PERIOD].

That’s why today I wanted to share with you 6 of my favorite dumbbell ab exercises in one amazing core workout with weights to sculpt your midsection and tone up that six pack….
