#061 30-Minute Core-Crusher EMOM
Strengthen your foundation with this balanced circuit that builds a powerful core while hitting every major muscle group.
Good Morning!
Here’s today's workout. As always, you’ll get out of it what you put into it.
If you’re short on time, decrease the number of sets
If you’re feeling ambitious, increase the number of sets or reps per minute
If you’re low on energy, focus on the movement and just push through
Focus on Consistency rather than perfection
Workout #061:
Total Time: 30 minutes (6 exercises x 5 sets)
Instructions: Perform each exercise for one minute, then move to the next. Repeat the circuit 5 times.
Mountain Climbers (Dynamic - Core Power)
How to Do It:Start in plank position
Drive knees to chest
Alternate quickly
Keep hips low
Easier Variation: Slow down the pace and focus on proper form rather than speed to reduce intensity while still engaging the core.
Wide Arm Push-Ups (Upper Body - Chest Focus)
How to Do It:Hands wider than shoulders
Lower chest
Keep elbows out
Push up
Easier Variation: Perform from knees while maintaining the wide hand position to reduce resistance while still targeting the chest muscles.
Skater Jumps (Dynamic - Lateral Power)
How to Do It:Jump side to side
Land on outside foot
Touch floor (optional)
Stay low
Easier Variation: Step side to side instead of jumping to reduce impact while still working on lateral movement patterns.
Superman Raises (Upper Body - Back)
How to Do It:Lie face down
Lift chest/arms
Hold briefly
Lower controlled
Easier Variation: Alternate lifting just the upper body then just the lower body instead of lifting everything simultaneously.
Reverse Lunges (Lower Body - Balance, Strength)
How to Do It:Step backward
Lower back knee
Front shin vertical
Push to return
Easier Variation: Hold onto a support like a chair or wall while performing the movement to help with balance.
V-Ups (Core - Total Core)
How to Do It:Lie flat on back
Lift legs and torso
Touch toes at top
Lower with control
Easier Variation: Lift just legs or torso separately, gradually working toward the full movement as strength improves.
That's it. How’d it go today?
Let me know, I read every answer to adjust future workouts.
To recap, here's what you hit today:
CORE ON FIRE! This workout hits your abs from every angle - mountain climbers blast your entire core while V-ups carve out that six-pack with laser precision!
EXPLOSIVE LATERAL POWER! Skater jumps transform your side-to-side movement and build athletic quickness that translates to everyday life and sports performance!
TOTAL BODY BALANCE! The perfect mix of pushing (wide-arm push-ups) and pulling (superman raises) movements creates balanced strength while reverse lunges build leg stability!
See you tomorrow morning!
