30 Day Ab Challenge Printable Spreadsheet + PDF

This 30 day ab challenge is a great way to build the habit of regular abdominal muscle training. It combines a wide variety of abdominal exercises with high intensity interval training (HIIT) to help strengthen the core muscles while burning fat.

A Quick Note on Abs and Body Fat

As described in the Lift Vault post on how to get six pack abs, if your abs are concealed behind a layer of fat, they won’t be visible no matter how strong they are. Diet is a crucial part of showing off your washboard stomach that is not covered in this 30 day challenge.

If you’re not sure how to get started with getting your diet on track, do some Googling on these topics:

1. Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)
2. IIFYM
3. My Fitness Pal (calorie tracking app)
