One Minute all you have?? Do this for your Abs…
By now we all know that I am slightly biased when it comes to abdominal workouts and Plank being the Numero Uno BEST exercise. However, for that quick burn we all love (or maybe thats just me) , that won’t leave you with an aching lower back work in one minute of Bicycle Crunches!
What exactly are you working when you’re “bicycling”? Yes, your abs of course but here are the specifics:
internal and external obliques, rectus abdominis, transverse abdominis, and your hip flexors!
How to:
1.Lie face up on the floor and lift your legs over your hips with your knees bent 90 degrees. PLace your fingertips lightly behind your ears and have your elbows out. Lift your chin to maintain a neutral spine.
2. Contract your abdominals as you exhale and lift your right shoulder toward your left knee. At the same time, pull your left knee to your right elbow and extend the opposite leg. Repeat on the other side.
Continue back and forth for the length of one whole minute! If one minute non-stop is too long break it up and rest in between two 30 second intervals. play with the speed, the faster your move your legs, the easier it will be. And of course the slower you move your legs and the lower you keep your feet to the floor (not touching) the harder it will be.
Make sure you keep your hips in contact with the floor the entire minute.
Have fun!
Train hard. Eat clean. Live happy.

About Me
My name is Lauren Fellows and I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist and Performance Enhancement Specialist. I am based out of Denver, CO with a passion for training hard, pushing myself, and healthy cooking. Growing up in San Diego has lead to my other passion of being out in the sun whether I am running, biking, playing kickball, softball, volleyball, swimming,hiking, wake boarding, snowboarding… I love to be active and outside. However, living in Colorado for the last 6 years has allowed me to discover the joys and opportunities of working out indoors (thank you winter) while also expanding my repertoire of outdoor activities . I have no shame in admitting that I am a “gym rat” and love showing off with my “fancy” push-ups in front of all the heavy lifters.
As a Personal Trainer I not only help my clients to achieve their goals but I push them to become better, stronger and happier versions of themselves, inside and out. If you do not love yourself on the inside- you will never love yourself on the outside. Being happy and fit affects all aspects of our lives positively and I want to spread that to all.
I am COMMITTED to inspiring changing lives through fitness.
TRAIN HARD. EAT CLEAN. LIVE HAPPY.
