A seated abs workout may bring to mind something you’d find on the noticeboard of a retirement home, a workout for an ageing body. Something super easy and low impact reserved for those edging ever closer to triple digits. But just because were sitting, it doesn’t mean we can’t be working…hard

This seated abs workout is perfect for you if you want to work on your core, strengthen your abdominal muscles and burn belly fat, but don’t want to put unnecessary strain on your neck, back, knees or hips. This workout is low impact but will be a challenge I promise you.

Before we get start, make sure you have a comfortable chair ready that you can easily move around in.

15 exercise, 40 seconds each followed by a burst of intense exercise. 10 seconds rest

  2. Gently raise your left knee vertically upward, keeping your torso straight as you do so.

In this heartfelt video, I share a deeply personal story about the loss of my beloved dog, Buddy, and the impact he had on my life and the lives of many of you who worked out alongside him. Losing a pet is a painful experience, and if you're grieving a pet or struggling with how to cope with pet loss, I hope my journey brings you some comfort. Buddy brought so much joy, and his absence is a profound loss that has left me reflecting on the lessons and love he brought into my life. Join me as I navigate the grief, gratitude, and countless emotions that come with saying goodbye to my angel. I'd love to hear your stories about your pets and the special bond you share with them.

  1. i love the workouts. one suggestion please. i would love it if you could develop a book with the instructions / pics of each movement, as i do not have a smart phone or tablet – just a pc

    thank you

  2. I would love a DVD if your exercises. I don’t see well so if I could follow along in my TV that would be great! You could do a whole series.

    1. I’m so glad you enjoyed the workout Silvia! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment ❤️❤️❤️
