10 Min Rebounder Abs w/ handlebar is an add on/finisher workout from Michelle Briehler. I love Michelle’s short rebounder workouts. They are the perfect add on/finishers.ย I also loved her other handlebar workouts so I decided to give this one a try. It’s definitely not my favorite but it does the job if you are looking for some core work to finish off any rebounder workout. The handlebar in this workout is not a necessary or integral part of the workout like it is in her other handlebar workouts. You can just hold the rebounder frame for any move that Michelle holds the handlebar. There is no jumping. This is just core work done laying on the rebounder. All except 2 plank based exercises and for those your hands are on the rebounder mat and feet are on the floor.
This workout is done interval style; 40 seconds of work followed by a 10 second transition. There is a timer in the lower right hand corner of the screen counting down your intervals and recoveries. There is a progress bar just below it counting down the workout time as a percentage.
10 Min Rebounder Abs w/ handlebar is 10:28 minutes; no warm up or stretch other than a deep breath at the end. The last minute or so is Michelle talking while you lay back on the rebounder resting.
