More about her abs workout

Nikki wrote in her caption, “Save this for the next time you need an ab workout! It will make you sweat, but it will feel amazing when you are done! I do each exercise back to back with no rest in between. Then, I take a 3-4 minute break and do another round! I do 3-4 rounds depending on how I’m feeling that day… I usually do this 1-2 times a week in order to strengthen my core; however, every time I post an ab workout, I feel it is so important to mention that ABS ARE MADE IN THE KITCHEN! My transformation has mostly come from focusing on my nutrition and eating lots of veggies and protein.”
