Tips

  • In the crunches, don't pull on your neck: your hands just support your head.
  • In the plank, squeeze your glutes and abs as if someone were about to push you; breathe normally.
  • To progress, add 5 seconds to the planks or 2 reps to the rest each week.

If you have an injury, a medical condition or are pregnant, check with a professional before starting a new routine.
