in particular is gonna be more about pops and I get so many questions what do
you do about your abs how did you get them plus we're gonna be doing an ab
workout today at home that you guys can do to build core strength
what ABS really are how your stomach really works how belly fat really works
I'm gonna show you guys add workouts that I love to do with the gym and that
have helped my stomach look better the like a girl watches though please don't
mind my hand tan it's just I really think it's the dry skin right now no
matter what I do I'm moisturized with cream and everything and for some reason
it's just I feel like all over social media people make these really crazy
promises and you don't have to go to the gym to get abs you can just take this
and you can get abs and just again always gaining knowledge about how
things actually work is everything I actually posted something on IG which I
wish I could find out maybe I can go back in my archives it says everybody
has abs you do everybody does I don't care if you're 200 pounds I don't keep
your 160 I don't care if you feel like you've never seen an app on your stomach
in your damn life let's say you're at 120
you're probably going to see if you keep doing these workouts you're probably
going to see a big difference in your abs in your stomach everything's gonna
be more define why because someone at 120 pounds probably has lost the maximum
amount from their stomach if you're like me 120 is thin but it's sin for someone
who is 5 foot 1 right the lowest I've been is 127 and that's when my stomach
looks the most defined because that's when my belly fat was at its most lowest
every single one of you that is watching this video has abs whether you have seen
them or not they are there always describe it as and I've heard other
people describe it as this imagine they are these heavy curtains on top like
right in front of you right those curtains need to be removed in order for
you to see the light come through the lengthy ups you haven't gone up or just
lowered in general you'll start to see them peep through and people will say
well even when you were at Lake you're close to like 140 which is what I'm
close to right now I believe I'm like I'm still around 137 I still see your
abs and you're not even like at your goal weight so here's the thing
everybody is different social media will say if you do this or do that you will
lose fat in this area impossible record that somewhere write it down
impossible promising people that if you do a certain thing that fat will come
off your stomach and I'm like this is so bad to be promising people it's
definitely not a good practice for me to be like preaching that to you tell me
you guys Oh after this I work on today you guys are gonna get abs it's for me
to show you guys what you can do once you get to that stage I did not start
doing our breakouts until I was a lot thinner because I knew there was really
no point I needed to get my body fat down even if when you don't do Abrego to
guys my abs are coming out once again because my body fat was lowered that's a
perfect example of everybody is different for me in particular I lose my
stomach fat is the first will actually first is my face but my stomach fat also
comes down along with my face that's why a lot of people are like you know even
at this weight your stomach still good because that's me that's how my
body functions so number one there's no workout in the entire world that can
target fat loss in one area when you see people doing arm workouts and their arms
get toned people think aha okay so I did a bunch of arm workouts and that's why
my fat went down there as you're working overall that's why your fat went down
maybe that person in particular gets weight loss or has more weight loss in
their arms why do you guys think all these like Fitness influencers they all
look completely different some of them have shredded shredded ads they have abs
for days other girls are very very lean just like the other girls but their
stomach is not crazy crazy shredded that's because they're not focusing on
that area they don't want shredded abs you do have the control also to a
certain extent but with body fat this is how much control you up
nada you have no control of how or where your body fat comes from okay or it
comes from like the last place is my arms okay it was the last thing to go
and I know I've spoken about this but I still get a lot of you guys messaging me
saying how did you get your stomach like that
the truth is you have to just keep going doing these workouts are best when you
ready have lowered your body fat by a certain percentage in the past when I've
done a Bracco's I've actually felt very swollen in this area and my belly fat
was still there I still had a lot of it there was no ABS to be found because
number one the body fat count was not going down number two I still had belly
fat so how do you want the ABS to come out when the shield is in front of it
that's how abs work okay you have to get rid of the fat shield on it like in the
front you have to get rid of this shield first the more and more and more you get
rid of this shield the more and more and more your stomach looks toned and the
more and more and more your abs look better I never want to come on here and
say do this I work out and get abs there's just so much more to that that I
feel like I'm actually going to do the opposite and ruin what I'm trying to
prove this another thing that's really really
really key so important I get a lot of messages saying my no matter what I do
my belly fat will not go down that goes back to you can choose where your body
fat comes out from number two you just need to keep going
some of you say you know I have really really skinny like stick legs but then
my stomach my body fat on my stomach does not want to come off so again you
do still need to keep going unfortunately everybody is just
different again I never want to lie to you I never want to say all girl then
there's something wrong with you no there's nothing wrong with you it's just
your body and how your system in particular works that's the major
problem with social media they make you feel especially with society that
everybody needs to look this way but the fact is only like 5 percent of you can
look that way not everybody has a figure 8 figure not everybody has this curvy
voluptuous big hip figure some people have larger hip dips some people have
smaller hip dips I have smaller ones if I keep working out and losing my body
fat the hip dips are gonna get a little bit more noticeable why because the fat
is coming off of them I'm like you guys were you guys want abs I want my arms to
be thin but it's very hard for me to do that I have to keep going to the point
where I'm like 115 for them to be like super super thin you might not get this
like 100% perfect body that you have in your mind but that's why it's important
to accept your body for what it is if you have large hip dips you might have
to accept that if you have a stomach that's very very difficult to lose body
fat on you might have to accept that and the sooner that you accept these things
the sooner we're all just gonna learn to love it love each other in the way we
are that's something I'm okay with will I ever have those like really tiny
chicken arms maybe I won't and guess what I'm okay with that it's all about
being realistic it's all about knowledge and understanding how things work and
how your body works and just reminding yourself that not everybody is going to
be the same you are completely different than me some of you reach out to me and
say my body works exactly like yours does
and that doesn't surprise me because there's going to be people that have the
same type of system as me so hopefully that helps you guys kind of understand
and I feel like the sooner we just accept this truth the closer we'll get
to being more happy with ourselves there's Matt over here which I can't
link this for you guys this odd brother which again I got on Amazon and we're
just gonna be using one 10 pound weight so if you're a beginner you can cross
your feet just like this whole whole as far as you can if you can go really
really low like all the weights for lies make sure you're not like curving your
back like this or bending up with that make sure your back is straight so try
to do about as much as you can honestly but trying to do both six of these and
do them for three different sets try to keep your core really nice and tight
while you guys are doing it okay this one I love doing at the gym get your
feet underneath and this is what's gonna help when you're coming back up I grab
your 10-pound weight while keeping the abs tight but anytime you're adding
resistance giving that extra effort but if you guys don't want to do any just do
these if you want to I'll add workouts are serious but I love them they're like
so challenging really it's all about doing as much as you can because again
it's about setting small goals really just focus on you actually doing the
workout putting in the effort I can't believe I'm talking to you guys through
this like this what you can also do is kind of hold in between right here make
sure your back is straight make sure your back is not curved like this never
do this keeping the tummy and nice and tight over here and if you guys even go
like this it's gonna be even harder do you can put on some shoes like a normal
person but I would like to be barefoot you want to keep your back leveled again
not curving it then you're gonna move the weight over here no one said this
was the mesial now if you're an absolute beginner what you can do is cross your
legs like this at the back again just like the out roller again keep your back
straight not too like this and not like this at all
where you tap your shoulder well holding in your abs to make sure you're
always flexing them this time you're going to put your elbows up like this
lift one leg don't bring it down all the way and switch legs you really want to
feel it so go nice and slow don't be like this again always keeping the abs
tight don't forget to have some water in between you're allowed to have some
water don't kill yourself no I would like to call this the rowboat this one I
do too and I really feel like y'all dying it put your hands behind your head
this guy up and you're gonna go towards it and try to go as close as you can to
the knee really tighten those ABS together imagine I'm hugging each other
none of y'all can tell me you're not done that is a really good ABS circuit
workout that you guys can do it's really strengthening up the core I can barely
talk again you guys can do this workout with anywhere and also link down below
these guys these are really good to have at home these little pieces of equipment
because some days if you can't make it to the gym some days to be really honest
I can't just want to be at home and work out that's how Steph gets this gut right
