So I have attempted 30 day shred twice now and I cant even finish the 1st day :/

When I do push ups she says to flex the abs? How do i do that while doing push ups? Do I suck them in?

A little background: I am 5'3" and weigh 118. I am skinny but have belly fat. What am I to do :(

    hmmm...not sure why that stops you from finishing...but anyway

    Just "tighten" you belly up yes...

    If you want to do 30DS do it...I did it at 178lbs...no it wasn't easy but it got easier...each time I did it..

    Yes it does get switched up every 10 days and gets hard again but it's that cycle.

    Imagine how proud you will be when you do finish it.

    Think of someone punching you in the stomach. Tighten the muscles so that they would help block the punch. This can be done in a push up. The core should be tight to help protect your lower back. If you need to, practice with the plank first. Squeezing the glutes, rotating the pelvis to the floor should also help contract the abs.
