20-Minute Total Core Split Workout
Welcome to my 20-minute total core split workout. We work all elements of our core (lower back, obliques, upper abs and lower abs) in 15 exercises with no repeats. In this blog you’ll find a summary of the workout with some tips and notes. But if you just can’t wait to get moving, then go ahead and dive right into the workout.
If you have time, take my 5-minute warm up before your workout and my 5-minute post workout stretch when you’re done.
