    Hi there! With my experience with trainers and weight loss your best bet wouldBe to space
    t divide your training upper one day lower body the next and back after that. My training rourtine looks like this:
    Monday: upper body tone focus/abs
    Tuesday: cardio/abs
    Wednesday:lower body with extra attention to my butt
    Thursday: cardio/abs
    friday: back/abs
    Saturday: total body/abs/cardio
    Sunday: rest

    Now when i say that i do abs everyday ill do 10 crunches here and 10 there. Not doing a major ab brn.
    and this is my " in a perfect world" routine. The best results require a good balance of cardio strenght training and a balanced diet. Good luck and i hope this helped a bit!
