Felipe Melo’s workout routine involves his girlfriend really working her core

The family that works out together, stays together.

Well perhaps that why Felipe Melo think it is a good idea to help his girlfriend work her abs in a punishing exercise regime that we may have seen Jon Jones of UFC fame try once before.

The Inter Milan midfielder is coming off the back of a mixed season in Serie A and is looking for ways to keep in shape for the summertime.

Most people would go for a run, or maybe lay off the Magnums for a while.

Instead Melo has his girlfriend wrap her legs around his waist and encourages her to perform ab curls with a kiss at the top of the routine.

It means he gets to work on his core, while she firms up her abs and core as well as lower back.

Mawkish, yes.

Effective, clearly.

Posting it on social media to show off, most definitely.
