2. Side Reach

Targets obliques, deep (transverse) abdominals

Lie on the ground on your right side with legs stacked, right arm on ground and left arm on top of left leg.
Keeping abs pulled in, reach left hand down as if going to touch ankle (you'll move only slightly off the floor), feeling the contraction along your side.
Slowly lower back down, using your obliques and abs to provide resistance. Do 8 reps; switch sides and repeat.

Challenge yourself: Lift your legs slightly as you reach toward ankles.

Next: 3. Boat Pose
