Ball roll out: Kneel down in front of a medium sized exercise ball with your hands on the ball. Roll the ball forward, extending your trunk out. Keep your knees in place so your body stretches out in front of you.
Cross Body Mountain Climbers: Start in a push up position, keep your back as flat as possible and bring your right knee up to your left elbow and then return to a push up position. Now bring your left knee up to your right elbow. Keep alternating this move and you will feel it in your core.
Plank: Start in a modified push up position with just your toes and you elbows touching the ground. Keep your hips up, your back flat and your midsection tight. Hold this position for 60 seconds.
Your abs will be popping out soon enough!
