Top 10 Exercises for Abs and Waist

1. Roll-Up: Start by lying flat on your back, arms reaching overhead. Slowly peel your spine off the mat, vertebra by vertebra, until you are sitting tall. Roll back down with control. Repeat for a total of 10 reps.

2. Hundreds: Lie on your back, lift your legs to a tabletop position, and pump your arms up and down by your sides. Inhale for 5 counts and exhale for 5 counts for a total of 100 pumps.

3. Plank: Hold a straight-arm plank position for 30 seconds, engaging your core and glutes. For an extra challenge, try lifting one leg at a time while maintaining proper form.

4. Side Plank: Balance on one forearm and the side of your foot, keeping your body in a straight line. Hold for 30 seconds on each side to target obliques.

5. Single Leg Stretch: Lie on your back, hug one knee into your chest while extending the other leg out at a 45-degree angle. Switch legs in a scissor-like motion for 20 reps.

6. Double Leg Stretch: Bring both knees into your chest and curl your head and shoulders off the mat. Extend your legs out to a 45-degree angle while reaching your arms overhead. Circle your arms around to hug your knees back in. Repeat for 15 reps.

7. Bicycle Crunches: Lie on your back, bring your hands behind your head, and twist to bring one elbow towards the opposite knee while extending the other leg out. Alternate sides in a pedaling motion for 20 reps.

8. Russian Twists: Sit on your sit bones, lean back slightly, and lift your feet off the ground. Twist your torso side to side while holding a weight or just your hands together. Aim for 15 twists on each side.

9. Leg Raises: Lie on your back, hands under your hips for support. Lift your legs up towards the ceiling, then slowly lower them back down without touching the floor. Repeat for 15 reps.
