- Beginner
This 10-minute ab workout targets your upper abs, lower abs and obliques to build a strong, stable core. It opens with a short warm-up, moves into a 4-exercise circuit you repeat 2 times, and ends right after your final round, so every minute counts.
Hit start and the built-in timer calls out every exercise and rest, so you never have to look at a clock. Switch the level below to make it easier or harder.

FAQ
Is a 10-minute ab workout enough?
Yes, short sessions work, especially on busy days. 10 minutes done consistently adds up, and you can stack two routines back to back when you have more time.
How often should I do this ab workout?
Aim for 3 to 4 times a week, alongside full-body training. Increase the level once the current one feels easy.
Can beginners do this workout?
Yes. The beginner version uses easier exercise variations and longer rest. Move at your own pace, and keep good form over speed. Pause the timer whenever you need to.
Do I need any equipment?
Just a pair of dumbbells. Pick a weight you can control for the full work interval with good form; adjustable dumbbells are ideal for home workouts.
