I know how difficult it is to motivate yourself to start exercising regularly and maintain a workout routine. It’s specially hard when you have a bunch of other responsibilities, so it sometimes seems impossible to squeeze it into our busy schedules. Not to mention the costs of gym memberships and workout equipment.
These fitness challenges are surefire ways to kick off your own personal wellness journey as they are simple, require no equipment, and will only take a couple of minutes of your day.
Blogilates 100 Abs Challenge
Cassey Ho, aka Blogilates, is one of the most popular fitness instructors on YouTube with millions of views. She posts quick and easy Pilates workouts and has been uploading videos since 2009.
If you decide to do Cassey’s 100 Abs Challenge, you will be doing 100 reps of one ab exercise every day for 30 days. That’s a total of 3,000 reps in one month.
I’ve done this challenge myself and I started seeing a difference in my waistline around the 2-week mark. However, you have to remember that abs are made in the gym but shown in the kitchen, which means you also have to eat clean while doing this.
