Bicycle Crunch 

How: Lie on back with hands behind head. Lift shoulder blades off mat, raise legs so knees are bent at 90 degrees, and gaze at thighs, keeping neck relaxed. This is your starting position. Engage abs and rotate right elbow toward left knee while extending right leg to straight, lowering it as close to the floor as possible without resting it on mat. Return to start and repeat on the other side. That's one rep. Complete 10 reps. Continue to the next move.

Side Hip Bridge 

How: Start by lying on right side with left foot on top of right and right forearm on mat, elbow under shoulder. Your palm should be flat with your fingers spread, left hand on hip. Engage obliques and lift hips up until body forms a straight line from head to heels. Pause for one breath, then lower back down to start. That's one rep. Complete 10 reps on right side, then flip to left side and complete 10 reps on that side. Continue to the next move. 

Reverse Crunch

How: Start in a plank position. Keeping hips level, touch left shoulder with right hand, then place palm back on the floor. Repeat on the other side. That's one rep. Complete 10 reps. Continue to the next move.

Leg lower

Start with your legs at a 90-degree angle directly overhead. Slowly lower your legs four to five inches so they are still hovering in the air and hold this position for 5-10 seconds. Return to the 90-degree angle and repeat the exercise for 10 reps.  

Crunch

Lie down on your back. Plant your feet on the floor, hip-width apart. Bend your knees and place your arms across your chest. Contract your abs and inhale. Exhale and lift your upper body, keeping your head and neck relaxed. Inhale and return to the starting position

Seated Rotation

How: Sit on the floor and lean upper body back until abs are engaged. Legs should be lifted and bent at 90 degrees, and arms should be bent, hands clasped, with elbows wide. This is your starting position. Rotate torso to right side so that right elbow is hovering just off mat. Keep lower body still while rotating upper body to left side until left elbow is just off mat. Return to start. Gaze follows hands as you move. That's one rep. Complete 10 reps. Continue to the next move.
