I tried this 10-minute standing abs workout and it gave me more functional strength than sit-ups ever could

dumbbell workout

I like ab workouts that aren't too long, don't need a lot of equipment, and has a bit more variety than endless sit-ups. But so many routines follow the same pattern of crunches, Russian twists, and a few sit-up variations. 

That's why I knew I wanted to try this 10-minute standing abs workout as soon as I saw it. Designed by personal trainer Roxanne Russell, there are just 10 moves in all, so you do each one for 45 seconds and take a 15-second rest between. That's it.
