00:00:00
- What's up. It's Chris Heria.
00:00:01
In my last blog,
00:00:02
I ate nothing but junk
food for 24 hours straight
00:00:05
and completely lost my six pack abs.
00:00:07
So, today I'm going to
be taking you through
00:00:08
a 20 minute full six pack AB workout
00:00:11
that anybody can do
00:00:12
that I'm going to be
doing to get my abs back.
00:00:14
It takes no equipment.
00:00:15
It can be done anywhere,
right from the ground.
00:00:17
It can be done by anyone
of any fitness level
00:00:20
and see amazing results.
00:00:21
I've structured this workout
routine to challenge you while
00:00:23
allowing you to preserve your energy,
00:00:25
ensuring that you're
gonna be able to finish
00:00:26
the entire duration of
this workout routine
00:00:28
without having you gas out too early
00:00:30
and to develop strong
and defined six pack abs
00:00:32
while simultaneously
burning calories and fat.
00:00:35
And of course,
00:00:35
to see the best results,
you want to make sure
00:00:37
that your nutrition is on-point
00:00:38
while you're using this workout routine.
00:00:40

videos on this channel.
00:00:47
You can also check out
these videos right here.
00:00:49
Now I've broken down this workout
routine into four sections
00:00:51
to ensure that you're working
out every part of your abs,
00:00:53
giving you a complete
six pack abs workout.
00:00:55
Sometimes you're going
to be doing a whole bunch
00:00:57
of ab exercises and only emphasizing,
00:00:58
maybe, on your top or
your lower abdominals,
00:01:01
while neglecting other areas of your abs,
00:01:02
like your obliques, resulting
in an insufficient ab workout.
00:01:05
We're going to be doing this
whole routine with minimal rest
00:01:07
between each exercise to maximize
the efficiency of our time
00:01:09
and to really build our abdominals
00:01:11
for the 45 seconds on each exercise
00:01:13
and 15 seconds break in between.
00:01:14
So if you're ready to get started,
00:01:15
there's not going to be
much talking after this.
00:01:17
I need you to dedicate
20 minutes of your time
00:01:19
to crushing this workout routine.
00:01:20
Now, to properly follow along
00:01:22
and to have this workout
with you at all times,
00:01:24
Make sure you download the
Heria Pro app in the App Store
00:01:26
or Google play store.
00:01:27
Open up to the YouTube workout section,
00:01:29
you should find this routine.
00:01:30
Smash the like button on this video.
00:01:31
Now we're ready to get started.
00:01:33
The first five exercises are
going to be a set to warm us up
00:01:35
from a laying down position,
00:01:36
emphasizing on our lower abdominals.
00:01:38
The first exercise we're going to be doing
00:01:39
is Legs Down Hold.
00:01:41
We want our hands underneath our glutes,
00:01:44
feet six inches above the ground.
00:01:46
Squeeze your core,
regulate your breathing.
00:01:56
Now, we're just activating our abdominals.
00:02:00
Nice little warmup.
00:02:04
But if you're squeezing your abdominals,
00:02:05
you should definitely feel this exercise.
00:02:15
Make sure you preserve your energy,
00:02:17
'cause it's going to get more difficult,
00:02:19
gradually, with each exercise.
00:02:23
Here you go, last 10 seconds,
00:02:25
Five,
00:02:26
four,
00:02:27
three,
00:02:28
two,
00:02:30
and one.
00:02:31
All right, nice little warm up.
00:02:34
Take 15 seconds to catch our breath.
00:02:36
The next exercise we're going
to get into is going to be
00:02:37
a level up from that one.
00:02:38
That's going to be Laying Leg Flutters.
00:02:40
So, we'll get back into the same position,
00:02:43
hands on our glutes, feet straight out.
00:02:45
Keep your legs straight. One leg goes up.
00:02:48
You want to alternate.
00:02:52
Now the more separated your legs are,
00:02:54
the more effective you're going to be
00:02:55
engaging your abdominals.
00:02:58
But if you're just a beginner,
00:02:59
you can always just start
off with little flutters,
00:03:01
just like that.
00:03:03
(workout music)
00:03:12
Make sure you're squeezing
and engaging your abs
00:03:15
every exercise, every repetition.
00:03:19
Last 10 seconds. Here we go.
00:03:23
Five,
00:03:25
four,
00:03:26
three,
00:03:28
two,
00:03:30
and one.
00:03:32
All right, let's go
ahead and shake that off.
00:03:34
The next exercise we're gonna get into
00:03:35
is going to be Leg Raises, 45 seconds.
00:03:39
So again, laying position
feet off the ground,
00:03:43
bring your legs all the way up
00:03:44
and then all the way back down.
00:03:47
Nice and controlled,
00:03:49
engaging your abdominals.
00:03:51
Do not touch the floor,
00:03:52
and don't put your head on the floor.
00:03:56
(music continues)
00:04:08
More than halfway there, keep it going.
00:04:19
Here we go, last 10 seconds.
00:04:24
Five,
00:04:25
four,
00:04:26
three,
00:04:28
two,
00:04:29
last one.
00:04:32
All right, go ahead and shake that off.
00:04:36
We're almost done with the
first set of exercises.
00:04:38
The next one up is going
to be Laying Hip Raises.
00:04:39
So, we're going to get
into the same position.
00:04:42
Hands under your legs.
00:04:43
Curl in, lift up.
00:04:46
Knees in, lift your hips up.
00:04:52
Make sure to give it a full extension.
00:05:20
Last 10 seconds. Here we go.
00:05:26
Five,
00:05:27
four,
00:05:28
three,
00:05:30
two,
00:05:31
and last one.
00:05:33
All right.
00:05:35
We're down to the last
exercise from this position.
00:05:37
The next exercise we're going to get into
00:05:39
is going to be Crucifix.
00:05:41
So we're going to get down
into a laying position,
00:05:43
feet together, out above the ground.
00:05:45
You're gonna come in, touch
your heels, come back out.
00:05:49
Go at your own pace, of course.
00:05:51
This is definitely an ab-killer.
00:05:56
Give it a full range of motion.
00:06:11
Every time you crunch,
you want to squeeze.
00:06:20
Here we go, the last couple of seconds.
00:06:25
Five,
00:06:26
four,
00:06:28
three,
00:06:29
two,
00:06:31
and one.
00:06:33
All right, for the next five exercises.
00:06:35
we're going to be
emphasizing on our obliques
00:06:37
and working our abs from left to right,
00:06:38
and right to left using a twisting motion.
00:06:40
The first exercise is
going to be Russian Twists.
00:06:42
So, we're going to start
with our legs together,
00:06:44
six inches off the ground.
00:06:45
Touch one side, twist,
and touch the other side.
00:06:48
Really emphasize on your
twist every single time.
00:06:52
Don't just try to stay in one
position and go side to side,
00:06:55
really twist your torso.
00:06:59
That's going to give you the best results
00:07:02
for your abdominals.
00:07:09
If you're regulating your
breathing, pacing yourself,
00:07:14
you still have a bit of a ways to go.
00:07:16
We're only one fourth finished.
00:07:21
Last 10 seconds, here we go.
00:07:25
Five,
00:07:26
four,
00:07:28
three,
00:07:30
two,
00:07:31
and one. Ooh.
00:07:33
All right. First exercise, piece of cake,
00:07:35
go ahead and stretch that out.
00:07:36
The next exercise we're
going to be getting into,
00:07:38
another twisting exercise, Star Crunches.
00:07:40
We're going to lay down, come up,
00:07:42
touch the opposing ankle, and switch.
00:07:59
You should really twist your
torso, every single repetition.
00:08:09
I want to make sure you're
controlling this one,
00:08:11
you're not moving too
fast, pacing yourself.
00:08:14
The faster you move, the
less you're going to be
00:08:16
engaging your abdominals.
00:08:19
Last 10 seconds, here we go.
00:08:25
Five,
00:08:26
four,
00:08:27
three,
00:08:29
two,
00:08:30
last one.
00:08:32
All right.
00:08:33
Whew.
00:08:34
My abdominals are on fire right about now.
00:08:36
Moving into the next twisting exercise,
00:08:38
we're going to go for Bicycles.
00:08:39
Hands up, behind your head.
00:08:41
You're going to match
your knees to your elbows.
00:08:44
Give it a full range of
motion and only go as fast
00:08:48
as you're comfortable with.
00:09:00
Now, If you feel fatigued,
00:09:01
you can always just keep using
your legs and slow it down,
00:09:05
but do not stop.
00:09:09
More than halfway there. Keep it going.
00:09:22
Hang in there. Last 10 seconds.
00:09:27
Five,
00:09:28
four
00:09:29
three,
00:09:30
two,
00:09:31
and one.
00:09:33
All right, we're going to go ahead,
00:09:35
get into a push-up position.
00:09:36
The next exercise we're
going to be going for
00:09:38
is going to be Switching
Mountain Climbers.
00:09:40
You want to bring your
knee to the opposing elbow
00:09:43
and alternate.
00:09:44
As you can see, every time you go,
00:09:46
you want to twist your torso.
00:09:48
And of course,
00:09:49
you can go faster and pick up the pace.
00:09:59
Make sure to really
twist, every single rep.
00:10:10
Keep you knees up, nice and high.
00:10:19
You can touch your elbow,
00:10:20
(indistinct)
00:10:22
Last 10 seconds, here we go.
00:10:26
Five,
00:10:27
four,
00:10:28
three,
00:10:30
two,
00:10:31
and one.
00:10:33
All right, we're down to
the last twisting exercise.
00:10:37
That's going to be Side
Plank Reach Throughs.
00:10:39
Let's get into a side plank position,
00:10:41
You're gonna reach through,
00:10:42
twist your torso,
00:10:44
pull all the way back out.
00:10:46
We're gonna do one side
first for 22 seconds,
00:10:49
and then switch sides.
00:11:04
Here we go, last couple of reps.
00:11:06
Three,
00:11:07
two,
00:11:08
and one. Switch over.
00:11:11
Squeeze your core,
00:11:12

00:11:25
The last couple of seconds.

Five
00:11:28
four,
00:11:29
three,
00:11:30
two,
00:11:32

00:11:33
All right, whew.
00:11:35
And now the next five
exercises are all going to be
00:11:38
from a seated position.
00:11:39
So first up is going to
be Seated Leg Flutters.
00:11:42
From a seated position, legs together,
00:11:43
raise your legs, hands on
the floor, fingers forward.
00:11:48
Flutter those legs.
00:11:58
Pace yourself, regulate your breathing.
00:12:02
Contract, squeeze those abs.
00:12:12
More than halfway there, keep it up.
00:12:22
The last 10 seconds. Here we go.
00:12:26
Five,
00:12:28
four,
00:12:29
three,
00:12:30
two,
00:12:32
and one. Whew!
00:12:34
Now, I'm really starting
to feel my abdominals.
00:12:37
Let's go ahead and stretch that out.
00:12:38
Next exercise we're going to get into
00:12:39
is going to be Seated In and Outs,
00:12:41
again from the same position.
00:12:42
So, you're going to have your fingertips
00:12:43
facing forward again,
00:12:44
bring your knees all
the way to your chest,
00:12:46
all the way back out,
complete range of motion.
00:12:55
Remember, you do not have to go fast.
00:12:57
You're gonna get a quality
contraction in your abdominals,
00:12:59
go at your own pace.
00:13:22
Here we go, last 10 seconds.
00:13:25
Give it everything you go.
00:13:27
Five,
00:13:29

00:13:30
three,
00:13:31
two,
00:13:32
and one. Whoo, there we have it.
00:13:35
Stretch that out.
00:13:37
Moving on to the next exercise,
00:13:38
Side Boat Hold Pumps for
22 seconds each side.
00:13:42
So to get into this exercise,
00:13:43
we're going to have our feet up again,
00:13:44
lean back, get onto one glute
with your hands in front,
00:13:48
From this position, you want to pump.
00:14:00
Last 10 seconds.
00:14:04
Five,
00:14:06
four,
00:14:07

00:14:08
two,
00:14:09
and one.
00:14:10
Switch to the other side,
00:14:12
keep it pumping.
00:14:15
If the pump is too hard,
00:14:16
you can just hold this position,
00:14:19
but you should try to (indistinct).
00:14:26
Whoo, I'm feeling these.
00:14:27
Five,
00:14:28
four,
00:14:30
three,
00:14:31
two,
00:14:32
and one.
00:14:35
All right, shake that off, stretch it out.
00:14:38
You can really feel it
creating solid blocks
00:14:40
out of each side of your six pack.
00:14:41
We'll go onto the next exercise.
00:14:42
We have Reach Ups, 45 seconds straight.
00:14:45
So, we're going to start
in a laying position,
00:14:47
with our heels flat on
the ground, hands up.
00:14:49
Come all the way up, to a seated position,
00:14:53
come back down.

We're moving into the last exercise
00:15:40
from a seated position.
00:15:41
That's going to be the
Crunch Reach Through.
00:15:42
Very similar to the last exercise.
00:15:44
You're gonna have your hands up,
00:15:45
crunch up, punch through your legs.

More than halfway there, keep going.

Whew! All right!
00:16:37
We're officially three-fourths done
00:16:38
with this workout routine.
00:16:39
My abs are already on fire.
00:16:41
So, the last five exercises
are going to be done
00:16:42
from a plank position.
00:16:43
So the first move is going
to be Plank Knees to Elbow.
00:16:46
Get into a plank position.
00:16:48
You bring your knee up,
all the way to your elbow,
00:16:51
and alternate.
00:16:54
(workout music continues)
00:17:17
Keep it up, don't stop.
00:17:17
We're almost there. Don't give up.
00:17:22
Last 10 seconds, here we go.
00:17:27
Five,
00:17:29
four,
00:17:30
three,
00:17:32

00:17:33
and one.
00:17:34
Whew. All right.
00:17:37
Stretch that out.
00:17:38
The next plank exercise
we're going to get into
00:17:40
is going to be High Side Plank Raises.
00:17:43
So, let's start in a push-up position.
00:17:45
Go to the side, one
hand up or by your side.
00:17:48
You're gonna dip your hips down
00:17:49
and come right back up.
00:17:50
Have a strong grip on the ground,
00:17:53
so that you don't wobble around.
00:17:57
Keep your balance.
00:18:02
Here we go, the last five seconds.
00:18:04
Five,
00:18:05
four,
00:18:07
three,
00:18:08
two,
00:18:09
and one.
00:18:11
Switch.
00:18:14
Down, all the way up.
00:18:15
Keep the strong grip on the ground.
00:18:17
Maintain your balance. Squeeze your core.
00:18:28
Here we go the last five seconds.
00:18:29
Five,
00:18:31
four,
00:18:32
three,
00:18:34
two,
00:18:35
and one. All right.
00:18:38
Next up, Plank Open and Closed.
00:18:40
So again, we're going to
get into a plank position.
00:18:44
We're gonna bring our legs out,
00:18:45
and then bring our legs in.
00:18:46
If this is too difficult,
you can always walk it out.
00:18:50
Go at your own pace.
00:19:01
Whew!
00:19:02
You should really be feeling
those abs right about now.
00:19:05
Don't give up, keep it going.
00:19:06
We're almost done with
the whole entire workout.
00:19:08
Stay strong.
00:19:13
Do you feel like giving up?
00:19:15
Think about who you do this for
00:19:18
that you wouldn't give up on.
00:19:21
Whether it be your mom, your grandma,
00:19:25
keep it going.
00:19:26
Here we go. Last couple of seconds.
00:19:30
Five,
00:19:31
four,
00:19:32
three,
00:19:33
two,
00:19:35
and one.
00:19:36
Whew!
00:19:37
All right, Mom,
00:19:38
that one was for you.
00:19:40
We just have two more exercise to go.
00:19:41
And next up we have
High Plank to Low Plank.
00:19:44
This is going to be another difficult one.
00:19:45
Here we go.
00:19:46
From a push-up position,
go down, and then up.
00:19:50
Low plank to high plank.
00:19:52
As you can see, I'm starting
with my right hand first.
00:19:55
After 22 seconds, we're going to switch,
00:19:56
and start with our left hand first.
00:20:12
All right, let's get ready to switch.
00:20:14
Now, starting with our left hand.
00:20:20
Keep your core tight.
00:20:21
Make sure your hips are not too
low or sticking up too high.
00:20:29
Here we go, last five seconds.
00:20:30
Five,
00:20:32
four,
00:20:33
three,
00:20:34
two,
00:20:35
and one.
00:20:37
Ooh, we smashed this routine.
00:20:39
We just have one more exercise to go.
00:20:41
That's going to be the
good old-fashioned plank.
00:20:43
So take this last chance
to catch your breath.
00:20:46
We're going to give it everything we got.
00:20:48
Let's get into a plank position.
00:20:52
I want you to squeeze your
core, squeeze your entire body.
00:20:56
Squeeze your shoulders.
00:20:58
And breathe.
00:21:00
Make sure your hips are
not too low or too high up.
00:21:06
And you're focused.
00:21:07
This is the last move we
really want to make it count.
00:21:18
Don't give up, no matter
what, we're almost there.
00:21:25
Here we go, last 10 seconds.
00:21:30
Five,
00:21:31
four,
00:21:32
three,
00:21:34
two,
00:21:35
and one.
00:21:37
Whew! There we have it!
00:21:39
Oh, my abdominals are on fire.
00:21:42
Definitely going to get my abs back
00:21:43
If I continue to do this
for the next two days.
00:21:45
And if you were able to
complete this routine
00:21:46
and follow along with me, congratulations.
00:21:48
You're also on your
way to getting shredded
00:21:50
and a solid six-pack,
not just looking strong,
00:21:52
actually being strong
00:21:53
by using all these different
positions and flections,
00:21:55
and ensuring that we're engaging
00:21:56
and strengthening all
areas of our abdominals.
00:21:58
Working out your abs is not just good
00:22:00
for having six-pack abs.
00:22:01
They literally help you with every lift
00:22:03
and every exercise you do.
00:22:04
Whether you're working out your lower body
00:22:05
or your upper body,
00:22:06
you're assisting with your abdominals,
00:22:07
and the stronger your abdominals are,
00:22:09
the stronger your lifts can be,
00:22:10
and the better performance
you'll have as well,
00:22:11
to build more muscle,
00:22:12
absolutely everywhere
throughout your body.
