Carving out that iconic hourglass figure that makes jaws drop and drool dribble is no small task. Take it from me – it took me almost 6-7 months of hard work to achieve my hourglass figure (and just 3 weeks of vacation to lose it all!).
But here’s what you need to know – it is possible. And if you really want to, you can achieve it too! If you’re looking for a small waist workout to get that snatched look, then you’re in the right place.
