12 Favorite Ab Workouts

Lifestyle March 19, 2015

Barefoot Blonde

Barefoot BlondeBarefoot BlondeBarefoot BlondeBarefoot Blonde

JACKET: Race with Grace // BOTTOMS: Wunder Under // SHORTS: Breezy Short // MATT: 3mm // SHOES: Nike // STROLLER: Uppababy

This week has kind of been a weird, off week for me! I don't even know why - I have just been feeling off! So it was nice to get outside and get some fresh air with my boys. Working out and getting fresh air always make me feel better. I also got an excuse to wear my new work out clothes from Lululemon! I have always heard the craze about them and its all just so so true. Everything fits like a glove and the colors and strap designs are so unique and make it fun to get dressed to work out.

Living in the city we have been so much more active that I honestly don't feel bad if I don't make it to the gym! Between walking Chauncey a few times a day, random trips to markets, trips in the park, shopping, or whatever, the miles really add up! Somedays we walk (excluding cardio) 6 or 8 miles! The warmer it gets too, the more miles we add up because it's easy do cardio in the park. I love that we have the trail that goes around Jackie Onassis Reservoir so close to us! It is such a a beautiful view and I love just walking and thinking!

I really love lululemon's strappy workoutout tops/bras which I normally wear to the gym, or for an at home workout, but for outdoors long sleeves, pants and gloves are still the way to go.

I also wanted to share with you this short video of my top 12 favorite ab workouts that you can do at home or at the gym! Honestly I always think it comes down to butt and abs! If those two things are in shape you can usually fool the rest into looking in shape too ;) plus I love the feeling of having tight abs - it makes me feel good and helps motivate me to want to stay in shape! The only thing you need is a mat, and a weight (or a baby or something heavy).

**Disclaimer - I am not a professional AT ALL! So I am not saying any of this is "correct form" I am sure some of you professionals will be thinking, she needs her back straighter!!! Or whatever. But this is just how I like to work out, thats all :) Watch the video HERE or scroll down!

Hope you all have a great day!

*Thanks to lululemon for sponsoring this post!

    My black lab does the same thing to me when working out!!! I came across your hair tutorial on Pinterest & fell in LOVE with your website! Everything about you = PERFECTION

    I completely relate! We live in Chicago and I walk so much with our baby or errands, that it makes me feel less guilty if I can’t make it to the gym one day. I always heard the celebrity moms claim they lose weight “by running after their kids” all day and I just thought it was always BS. But now I get it!! I adore Lululemon. The hype is there for a reason. They fit incredibly well!

    This workout is so inspiring and totally do-able! I have wanted to try some Lululemon pieces out, they look so comfy! Love that you’re a real mom working out with your baby and dog! What style are your Nike’s? On the website, I couldn’t find ones with a coral/orange sole like yours. 🙁 Love reading your blog every morning!

    Amber you are just the cutest thing. I have been following you for about one year and I just love your posts, tutorials, and style. I had my son 4 months ago and because you had your little one a bit ahead of me, I have been inspired by your stages of pregnancy and motherhood. I am a bit older…. well 37 🙂 but I feel young, however this video has motivated to get my toosh in gear! I gotta get back into my skinnies because I refuse to buy new ones!!! I really enjoy your blog and instagram photos, just thought i would reach out! Thanks for keeping me motivated to keep it girly and fit because i gotta say as im sure you know some days with a 4 month old…… its hard!! 🙂

    This is the cutest workout video ever! My dog, a doxie, always tries to crawl on me too and sometimes he even imitates my moves.

    Could you make a similar video on your leg and butt routine?

    PS. You are beautiful as always and Atticus is the most adorable baby boy!

    I’m so glad you posted this! I was just looking for some new at home ab workouts. I love how Atticus is crawling on you during the video, that is so my life! My son is crawling all over me as soon as he sees me lay down on the ground. Luckily, in most cases, he adds a little more resistance for a better workout. Thanks for sharing!

    Since I started rowing, I noticed my core and back being leaner, but also stronger. I want to add a few ab work out, so this is great inspiration! I personally love how Atticus and Chauncey wanted in on like ALL of these exercises in the beginning and by the end they’re just out of shot haha. Also, HOW smart to use those little towels for abductions. I use TRX ropes at the gym, but this is great when you’re at home or on the road… x

    You are such a fit mom! I’m no where near in the shape you are, but your pup reminds me of how mine acts if I try to work out on the floor at home. I have a little toddler who likes to climb on me too and giggles while learning how to do sit ups.

    Those abductor crunches are my favorite! They work almost everything and if you go through them slowly can feel your core working. I’ve been so lazy with my workouts lately – all I want to do is hike with our new puppy in this gorgeous weather! It’s been unseasonably warm and I’m so happy about it.

      I am glad you agree!! I will have to try them slowly like you mentioned!! And wow hiking and warm weather sounds so nice!! Along with a new pup?! How cute!! Enjoy!! xo

    I agree that cute activeware makes working out ten times more fun! I recently just got into working out so I might have to give your ab workouts a shot. And I absolutely love the photograph of you looking out the window. It should be in an ad; it’s that good.

    Lululemon’s workout clothes are amazing. I bought a workout top with a sports bra sewn in and it holds everything perfectly. Their running leggings are great – I wear them every time I’m on the treadmill.
    Living in NYC would be so good for exercise. There is so much walking to do, and you can start running as it warms up too!

I have been having an off week too, but luckily it's almost over and the weekend will be here soon! Have fun at your event tonight, wish I could be there!

    I LOVE lululemon. In college my best fiend and I used to say “lululemon or die” and even would wear lululemon yoga pants to parties sometimes because we were silly. I seriously own so much lulu but can’t get enough. It’s great that you can walk everywhere, i am currently apartment hunting and that is my number one priority! I love being able to walk to the grocery store or a coffee shop or to the park.

    1. amber on March 24, 2015

      Haha I love that!! I really think I would die without their workout leggings 😉 They’re too amazing!! And yes I agree, I love having so many places in walking distance 🙂 Good luck apartment hunting, that is so exciting!! xo

    Oh my gosh, I love how Atticus and Chauncey are so curious and want in on the action! Loved watching them mosey around in the background! Lulu has so many cute styles and colors! My favorite is the Energy bra, which is similar to the one you are wearing. If I could, I would get it in all the colors!

    1. amber on March 24, 2015

      No way?! It is so fun isn’t it?? Even though they create a bit of a distraction!! haha 🙂 And yes, I did ab workouts my first trimester, but avoided them in my second trimester because they become much harder to do, and I hear it best to avoid laying on your back!! I hope that helps!! xo

    Walks in the park are manditory when you have a dog/baby, so fun you get to do yours in Central Park!! I do little workouts with my (nearly) 6 month old all the time, so I love seeing you include your little nugget in yours! Question, in your ab routine how many reps are you doing of each excersie? And do you repeat the entire sequence, or just do it once through?

    Thanks so much!

      I agree!! Totally mandatory!! It is such a nice way to break up the day and get some fresh air 🙂 I bet your little one is adorable!! And I do 300 total reps, so I just divide that up between the different ab workouts!! If that makes sense?! So I run through the whole workout just once 🙂 xoxo

    Amber, I adore how you adapt to living in such a big city with a baby (and a dog!). When my baby was born (10 year ago lamo) I was living in Berlin (Germany) and thought it was unbelievable stressful. I am so happy I don´t have to live in a big city anymore- but sometimes Florida can also get a little boring. So if I want some excitement, I just hop on your blog cause you are everyday somewhere else! 😉 Kisses darling, Sissi

    Oh my goodness! I am so happy you discovered Lululemon – it’s an awesome Canadian company (represent!) I recently got some more of their running clothes and bras (which are the best!). Every time I walk in I always say I can only wish that my entire wardrobe was from there. Such fantastic stuff. Enjoy being outside 🙂 Love, B. xxox
