We're letting you in on all of our tummy toning secrets...
Christmas, of course, is a time for indulgence. However, we may already be anticipating what the effects of a constant stream of eating and drinking will have on our waist-lines.

Having a trim tummy can make the world of difference to how you look and feel. Imagine being able to confidently wear figure-hugging tops? Not wanting to cover your belly with your handbag in the park? Actually looking forward to whipping your kaftan off on the beach once summer 2019 hits... ?

Follow Kelly's simple steps to learn the easy 30-day Tummy Toning Challenge moves:
Move 1: Plank on elbows and knees
Make sure elbows are directly under shoulders and tuck tail bone under.
Move 2: Inch worm burpees
Place hands to floor and step one leg at a time back into a plank position. Then step one leg at a time back to hands and come to standing, reaching arms in the the air.
Move 3: Plank on elbows and toes
Curl toes under and lift hips and knees off floor. Push body weight forwards so your nose is in front of your fingers and pull in belly button.
Move 4: Full burpees
Place hands to floor and jump both legs back at the same time into plank. Then jump them back to hands before coming up to standing and jumping up, bringing feet off floor.
Move 5: Plank on hands and toes
Come all the way up on to hands making sure wrists are in line with shoulders and push forwards on toes.
Move 6: Burpees with press up
As above, but as you come into plank perform one press up, lowering nose towards floor and bending elbows, before jumping the feet back in and jumping up to ceiling. To make it easier, lower on to knees to perform press up.
