NOTE: To anyone feeling this more in their legs rather than their core, take this as a note. Both the rectus femoris (a quad muscle) and lower abdominals flex the leg at the hip. when you do these, put your hands on your lower abdominals and mentally focus on the muscles under your hands flexing and the muscles in your legs relaxing. If you still feel your legs engaging instead, than it means your lower abdominals are a weak. Just do an easier variation of this exercise or do other lower abdominal exercises till you build up your strength to do these properly. It is a very common compensating move. Just remember that multiple muscles can do the same move and with your focus on which muscle you want engaged, you can strengthen what you aim to.
You think 11 min of an ab workout wouldn't burn so much! It's my second day and I still feel a burn in my stomach. I love your videos! You rock!!! :) Should I do this video every day or every other day?
+Breanna Dobitas (Disenchanted) This is a great one to incorporate in the mix, and there are more fun core routines over here on my personal channel for you to mix and match 3-5 times/week, so come on over!!
Aislan Unknown if you feel your neck straining then you're not doing the work out properly, you need to make sure your lifting with your shoulders and not your neck. If it helps put your hands underneath your head to rest your head on so it doesn't hurt your neck but you need to lift with your core and your shoulders.
This for me is more like a 20 minute workout instead of 8 because of how much I pause to catch my breath!! Oh em gee Kel, you're a ninja for not stopping and talking the whole time through too!!
I have just started tonight I need to loose about 65 pounds my doctor is on me so following you I'll be sure to get it in being a mom I have more then an hour when kids are in bed to work this out. Thank you so much for your videos
've been doing a lot of RUclips workouts, and she's by far my favorite one. I really like all of them, but she's my favorite. Kelsey, you are great. My favorite vacation spot is New Orleans. ;)
+Ali Kunkle Thanks so much for leaving such a nice comment, Ali! I LOVE New Orleans; the French Quarter is awesome. I'm over here on my personal channel now, just FYI if you're not subscribed ;)
Love this workout! Other workouts were getting too easy so I decided to try something different and even though I've been working on my abs/core for 3 weeks I still felt the burn the next day. I've started building a list of Kelsey's workouts and im toning up quite quickly and nicely. Plus its adorable to see my 3yro try these work outs with me. Thanks!
Kelsey ur amazing, I've been doing your workouts for years and recommending them to many people. You make it fun to work out. You and Rebecca are awesome. My favorite vacation spot is definitely Naples, Florida. :)
I love your workouts because they are convinient, challenging, and fun, but I was wondering if you guys could do more full lenghth workouts. Keep up the good work .
I can't believe you were able to talk during the entire workout. It absolutely killed me. thanks by the way it was a killer!! My abs were on fire🔥But there's no way I could've talked during that workout.
I really like this workout, not too long and not too short (i am still hungry with 5 minutes and exhausted after 15 :P) it burns day after the first time and not hard movements, thank you!!!
+Rhiannon Oneill Ah, that is so good to hear - I hope you're still keeping it up!! More fun to come over on my personal channel so come on over girlfriend!
August, huh!? That will be here before we know it! Stay plugged in with me on ruclips.net/user/kelseyleedotcom for new uploads and let's keep that #makefitmatter mindset going!
I come across your workouts on Pinterest so I got on RUclips to look at them and give them a go...I started today just to see how I could do and there are some things I couldn't do but my body has been through a lot I just had a baby 8 weeks ago so all of my muscles are weak and not used to working out...its been awhile! The crunches are hard for me to do it's hard to get up and down as quickly as you do and I was wondering if there might be an easier way to do them? I don't want to sound like a slacker but it's just going to take some getting used to considering my situation.
I have a question and I hope you can answer for me ^^ I have some problems with my back and when I do those exercises like in the video, I feel my back becomes hurt so should I continue doing these exercises ?
Yeah I am due to go down for the holidays until school starts back up in January. Its pretty cheap to live down there, you can get fairly cheap flights also, particularly from Miami. I'm hoping to get into a field school or something in the winter, but I am thinking that may not happen, I'd really like to stay down there all winter.
XHIT, I have a question, not related to the video, is it true that if you lift weights above your head like shoulder press you can actually put pressure on your spine and actually decrease in height? A friend told me that but I tend to believe it's a false fact...
Hey, what am I doing wrong with this workout? When I do the exercises that involve the legs, my legs pop right at the joints where they're attached to my torso. Does anyone else have this problem? Why do my legs pop? It doesn't feel healthy to me, but I love to do these workouts. Thank you for your response(s)! :)
Hey, Jemma! That just means your conditioning will increase from here out and your lower lumbar area will no longer rise off the floor as you become stronger. Stay consistent and over the next few weeks I'd bet you'll be feeling a significant difference.
Jemma Restell Me too! It just naturally arches. It's really annoying, and I can only keep my back flat if I go into a certain position, but I can't do workout's like that.

My fave spot is Queenstown in New Zealand. Love the Jet boats, paragliding, white water rafting and best of all, Bungee jumping.
Just love the way you do these exercises.. And i always found Single leg drop the toughest one when your other leg is not on the ground..
Kelsey ur amazing, I've been doing your workouts for years and recommending them to many people. You make it fun to work out. You and Rebecca are awesome. My favorite vacation spot is definitely Naples, Florida. :)
I love your workouts because they are convinient, challenging, and fun, but I was wondering if you guys could do more full lenghth workouts. Keep up the good work .

Favorite vacation spot would be: Mountain forest cabin.
Hey Kelsey, can I know how many times a week I should do these ab workout sessions?

Workout done!

Could you do killer stomach workouts?
Awesome 8 minute abs!
Haha, awesome video! Can't fault a Disney fan ^^
Hi, would like to ask if I should do this workout everyday? Any advice?
I have a question and I hope you can answer for me ^^ I have some problems with my back and when I do those exercises like in the video, I feel my back becomes hurt so should I continue doing these exercises ?
i'm only 11, but i do this workout and your total ab workout every night

Awesome...thanks!!!!!!!
Q. Roo, particularly Playa Del Carmen. I would move there if I could.
+William Ashley Great choices - maybe someday!

Could you PLEEAASE do a Shakira ab workout?!?! She has beautifully toned abs.
افضل تمرين 👌🏻
Burning! But I know its working!
thank you very much.
Buuuurning but its awsome!! Thanks. (:
My lower back comes of the floor in some of these exercises, any help?
what could you do for fat around your knees or would that just come under thigh workouts?
XHIT, I have a question, not related to the video, is it true that if you lift weights above your head like shoulder press you can actually put pressure on your spine and actually decrease in height? A friend told me that but I tend to believe it's a false fact...
Hey, what am I doing wrong with this workout? When I do the exercises that involve the legs, my legs pop right at the joints where they're attached to my torso. Does anyone else have this problem? Why do my legs pop? It doesn't feel healthy to me, but I love to do these workouts. Thank you for your response(s)! :)
I have the same problem ... But I do not know a solution
Maybe it's because you are not warmed up enough?
Thank you. :)
I have been doing this exercise for a while. But I failed to notice the difference between full sit-up and suitcase crunches
Does anyone else have a problem of keeping their back flat on the floor? I don't know how to stop it from arching!
Hey, Jemma! That just means your conditioning will increase from here out and your lower lumbar area will no longer rise off the floor as you become stronger. Stay consistent and over the next few weeks I'd bet you'll be feeling a significant difference.
Jemma Restell Me too! It just naturally arches. It's really annoying, and I can only keep my back flat if I go into a certain position, but I can't do workout's like that.
can you do a worm up video?
I started do this workout, but my problem is that my back is killing me. too much back pain.
my favorite place to go is Aruba
The 3rd one killed me
hey i just want to know how many calories do you burn doing abs exercises
It really is totally dependent on the individual. I use a Polar watch to track my estimated caloric burn.
Dubrovnik, Croatia.
She is beautiful and fit. I'm going to try this!
By the end of this my lower abs were just not working haha
