Abs workout: Jennifer Lopez is 50 years old, but somehow she makes it her best rep number. JLo’s trainer has explained that all of her abs reps are done in 50s, which includes 50 hanging ab raises, 50 rope crunches and 50 incline sit ups with a 45 pound plate. Once she finishes these reps, she repeats the same but with 35 reps for each, then she ends the same routine with 21 reps.
