8 NEW Abs and Core Circuits
by Funk Roberts, AB and Core Bundle For Fit Pros
If you were to take a quick survey of your fitness clients I bet you’re going to hear some version of the same thing over and over again…
“I want ripped abs!” or “I want a stronger abs and core”
No surprise, right?
The abs are your clients’ #1 trouble spot. And they’ve been looking for someone to help them get a six-pack.
They want to look good on the beach. They want to look good in their skinny jeans. But until now, other trainers have failed them.
A great way to add abs and core circuits to your sessions is to finish off the class with a 5-10 minute finisher that leaves their abs screaming and your clients coming back for more.
Today I am going to share 8 of my favorite abs and core circuits that you can add to the end of your bootcamp and group classes today…some have demo videos and others do not.

Workout 4 – 10 Minute EMOM Abs Circuit
This is a workout protocol that is common and popular in CrossFit WOD’s. “Every Minute On The Minute” means that you will perform each exercise for the prescribed reps one after the other. At the top of the next minute, you will repeat and try to complete the exercises and reps before the minute is complete. Depending on how fast you complete the reps before the minute is up, will be your rest time.
These circuits are all 10 minutes and perfect to end of your training session.
