NOTES FOR CORE BLITZ ROUTINE

This core routine is designed to be implemented either on non-strength training days such as before or after cardio or after intense training days as an additional part of your workout routine. Focus on maintaining proper spinal alignment and posture throughout. Brace abs tight
without over arching the low back.

Once you can achieve all reps and sets, increase the intensity by decreasing rest periods, increasing the number of reps, or by increasing the load (i.e. weighted plank with plate on back).

This core and ab routine (or s imilar routine) can be performed 2-3x per week in conjunction with the training routine of your c hoice.
