Hi everyone,

I was seeing trainer but havent in a bit so I been doing the gym and running. I was wondering if anyone has good at home abdominal exercises they can share. I do plank on the ball and ball situps now.

Thanks for the help.

The plank and variations is the best exercise!

I do one on the ground, where you do a plank on your hands, then go down one side at a time, onto your elbows, then back up to hands, back down to elbows etc. Side planks too.

Also, man pushups make my abs really sore, it really targets your core, just like planks do.

That and plenty of running, and I've never found a real need for crunches and sit ups. I have very strong, flat abs.

If you do DVD's, I use "The Firm" they have one just for core and abs--www.thefirmdirect.com

Your weight loss is great! :biggrin: We are kindred soul--started at the same size and have lost about the same amount, except my 80 something lbs includes 30lbs on the six month supervised diet.

Thinking of getting a personal trainer this summer--did you find it helpful?
