Here’s a great core move to strengthen your spine and tone your abdominal muscles. It will also help you get rid of excess flab on your stomach. Give it a try!

Step 1: Lie on your belly and balance on your knees and extend your arms. Press your hands against the floor.

Step 2: Exhale as you lift your torso into a modified push-up. Only the balls of your feet and your hands and forearms should touch the floor. Try to form a straight line from your heels to your head, using the strength of your belly to prevent your hips from sagging down toward the floor.

Step 3: Breathe normally and hold for 20 seconds in the plank position. (Gradually, work your way up to 1 minute.)

Step 4: Return to the starting push up position hold for 20 seconds. (Gradually,  work your way up to 1 minute)

Step 5: Repeat three times without resting.
