Our Top 10 Abs Exercises

 

The Prone Plank

A super-simple, do-anywhere move that zips up your abs a la Ms. Stefani. (Fingers crossed.)

Do it:

  • Get into a full pushup position with your palms on the floor beneath your shoulders.

  • Hold here for 30 seconds, with your abs contracted and your arms and legs extended and your head aligned with your spine.

  • As you build strength, hold this position longer, up to one minute.

  • Go deeper: Try the one-arm stable switching plank.
