10 Minute Seated Ab Workout | You Won't Believe It Until You Try It!

[@heidilady]

So happy to see a seated workout that doesn’t say “for seniors” or “for women”. Seated workouts can be for everyone!!

[@saracrawford6143]

Same! I'm in my forties, but I have a spinal injury and spinal nerve damage. I'm trying to regain core strength after my last surgery. I need to work my core hard, but not be hard on it. The "for seniors" workouts just don't get it.

[@donnovan-christiwade2056]

Yo. This was the most easily challenging workout I’ve ever done. I’m almost 500 lbs and I did almost the whole 10 mins without breaks. Modified some parts. Went all in on others. Will continue to use this when I’m not able to go to the gym.

I like you just because your name is Donnivan. 💪🏽💯

I'm an avid exerciser and just recently sustained a gnarly ankle sprain making my regular routines impossible to perform. I can't tell you how STOKED I am to have found Donovan and his awesome chair workouts. I'm on day four and I'm hooked! Thanks so much for making these workouts fun, motivating, and challenging! I'm thrilled to have found a way to maintain my fitness while recovering from my injury.

I started Ozembic 9 months again and was losing weight but wanted to up my fitness. I started working out but I have terrible back problems. I love that your chair workouts are low intensity but still hard enough to feel like I’m working. I workout with your videos everyday. 90lbs Down!

[@srwater1]

How's the work out now?

[@chairfitcamp]

That is great news!! Congrats!! Health is wealth!!

[@ladyempire5921]

Well.....that was intense. I felt the burn and it felt great. I just began my weight loss journey and this low impact workout was just what I need. I followed mostly the modified version but I'm so looking forward to the day I can do the regular. Thank you so much for helping out those who are not exactly gym ready. You ROCK!!

Thank you for your commitment to helping those who really want to get healthier but are hindered by knee issues. ♥️

[@chairfitcamp]

Knee issues shouldn't stop you from getting healthier and stronger. Other parts of the body need to be worked on as well. When the knees are ready, then we go in gently and get those knees strong! Keep on striving for improvement.

[@olivermb]

Thanks for the workout! Was at my computer watching football today and was feeling like a couch potato. Thank you for helping me do something good for my body at the same time!

[@Silvermoonscorpion]

Thank you. As a Lady of barely 45 years. 3 children, hypothyroidism due to cancer twice(full thyroidectomy) setting off fibromyalgia, CFS, RLS and landing me on disability for the last 14 years. I dislocated my left knee in January 2024. Being on the floor is not conducive yet. I'm trying to build strength in my core just as a general rule but also for a dance class I recently started. Your video was great. I felt it without feeling stressed by it. I did sweat but had zero issues keeping up. The minutes flew by and you kept me on the edge of my seat, 😉.. Well done, Thank you and Blessings ✨💚✨

I truly appreciate you. I've recently had foot surgery therefore I have mobility issues. Your workouts have kept my body moving & my mind from going CRAZY! Being complacent when you're normally busy biking, kayaking, paddle boarding, cross training, jump roping and hula hooping is EXTREMELY difficult. So I appreciate you more than words can say.

Perfect time thankfully I was able to keep up the whole 10 minutes!

[@donnacraig5225]

I saved your video months ago. I was going through my stuff this morn and saw the video again. I just watched the full video sitting on my butt. But today, u have inspired me to get up and do it. You are soooo inspirational and above anything else, you are real. You actually did the video while talking and showing us the moves. That is so impressive because it's hard to talk and work out at the same time. Thank you Donovan. YOU ARE MEANT TO INSPIRE AND YOU HAVE. You made me want to get moving. That's saying a lot. O owe you. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! KEEP BEING YOU CUZ YOU ARE AWESOME!!!
