Get ready to sweat with SELF! We’re so excited to reintroduce our video workout series, where you can work out (for free!) alongside top trainers who will keep you motivated and lead you through a powerful routine that you can literally do anywhere—even from the comfort of your living room. New videos will be dropping every other week—get psyched!
This week’s workout is a 20-minute abs routine led by LaToya Johnson and Julius White, the founders of One Body LA. You don’t need any equipment for this workout—just a mat or towel to provide some padding on the floor. In addition to following along with the Sweat With SELF video below, you can keep reading for workout directions, a list of the moves, and GIF demos of each one. This will come in handy if you want to get a sneak peek of what the workout entails, want extra guidance on form, or simply love the routine so much you want to print it out and do it again later.
Here, Johnson and White will lead you through a gentle warm-up, followed by two three-move sets targeting all of the muscles of your core. What are you waiting for?! Throw on those leggings and watch the video below, or send to a friend and get your Zoom workout party going!
