So you've decided to get in on the 2024 Women's Health Strength Transformation Challenge—congratulations on committing! With a new year comes new opportunities to set goals (and crush them). If you're someone who's looking to get stronger all over, this 10-minute abs workout led by fitness entrepreneur Katie Austin is a perfect place to start.

"These are some of my favorite ab moves," says Katie. "Plus, the best part about this [is] all you need is yourself to feel that burn." Yes, that's right—you won't need any equipment for these bodyweight exercises.

Try Katie's 10-minute core workout now:

To start, you'll launch into warm-up exercises like bear hugs, arm reaches, and marches that hone in on breathing and posture while engaging your lower abs. Once you get into the main portion of the workout, pick up the pace with high planks, cross climbers, toe taps, and lifted bicycles.

You'll tackle these abs exercises all the way through to the last minute before finishing up with a brief cool down to help you prepare for recovery. "In just 10 minutes, we feel stronger, we feel more confident, and energized," says Katie.
