AB Challenge (3,000 in 35)

Small steps lead to big actions — so we’re announcing a program that will help you build your way up to 3,000 abdominal exercises in 35 days!

And since you set the goals, you also your level of commitment. If you are just getting started on your fitness journey, or if you have rock hard abs that just need maintenance, this program is for you. And it comes with built-in support from your favorite #Fitblog blends, so you never feel alone.

Details:

July 1 – August 5, 2011; a 5-week AB challenge open to anyone and everyone
A Jump-Right-In Fitness program to help you get those swimsuit-ready abs we all dream of
Participants will average 100 ab exercises a day – with no crunches or sit-ups necessary!
Guided vlogs twice a week for interesting new ab exercises – I’ll show you mine if you show me yours!
