Perfect Ab-Carver Workout: Week 1

 
 
Summer is closer than you think…and that means bathing suit season is just around the corner. If winter gave you a bit of extra padding around your midsection that you’d like to get rid of, the Perfect Ab-Carver ™ will help.  The Perfect Ab-Carver™ will carve your core and help you get the ripped abs and sculpted arms you’ve always wanted.
 
Below are the basics for using the Ab-Carver, followed by Week 1 of a 21-day workout that will help get you ready for summer. Week 2 will be posted next week, and Week 3 the following week.

How are you planning to get fit for summer? Let us know in the comments section, and happy carving!


 

 
The Basics

The Perfect Ab-Carver’s kinetic “engine” uses a carbon steel spring to turbo-charge your abdominal and arm workouts. It provides resistance as you roll out and assistance when you roll back. The ultra-wide tread provides maximum stability when carving left, right and center. Ergonomic hand grips are angled to help activate arm and core muscles.

 
 

For more information on proper usage and movements with the Ab-Carver, please refer to the Ab-Carver Workout guide at: https://www.perfectonline.com/downloads/PF_AbCarver_Guide_LORES.pdf


CARVE YOUR CORE 21-DAY WORKOUT

The workout outlined is a 21-day workout to help you get a stronger core and sculpted arms. It is designed for all fitness levels from beginner to advanced. On Day 1 you will test how far you can carve. Make sure to follow the 3 Rules of Carve-ing and to learn your limits. On Day 21 you will re-test to see how far you’ve come.

Customize Your Workout:

Step 1: USE A WALL to determine how far you can carve from the starting position. Follow the guidelines in the “Know Your Limits” section from the Ab-Carver Workout guide.

Step 2: On Day 1, Perform 10 repetitions (reps) carving straight out, 5 carving left and 5 carving right. Follow the 21-Day workout to strength your core and arms.
 
Step 3: On Day 21, re-test your limit by moving in 6 inch increments away from the wall. Use your new limit as your baseline and repeat the 21-Day workout.
