Most hosts likely prepare for showtime by going over their lineup, making sure they know all the facts about their guests, and trying to calm any nerves they may have, but Ellen took her preshow prep to the next level with a quick, ab-strengthening workout. You can do it anywhere, and you're definitely going to feel your abs shaking after a couple of rounds. If you're ready for a short and sweet ab blast, check out Ellen's workout ahead. Ellen's Ab Workout Plank with shoulder tap and knee drive: two reps High plank: hold for 10 to 30 seconds Related: 4-Year-Old Instagram Star ZaZa Takes Her Moves to Ellen, and She Does Not Disappoint! Plank With Shoulder Tap and Knee Drive Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / Kyle Hartman Begin in a plank variation with your feet slightly wider than your hips for added stability. Keeping your torso stable, bring your right hand to your left shoulder, then return your right hand back to the mat. Bring your left hand to your right shoulder and return it to the mat. Next, drive your left knee to your left elbow. Return to the starting position and repeat on the right side. This counts as one rep. Repeat for a total of two reps. 1 / 3 High Plank Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / Maria del Rio Start resting on all fours. With your palms flat, raise up off your knees onto your toes. Keep your hands directly below your shoulders. Contract your abs to keep yourself up and prevent your bottom from sticking up. Remember to keep your belly button pulled in. With your head and spine in line, keep your back flat — don't let it curve. Picture your body as a long, straight board. Hold for 10 to 30 seconds. 2 / 3 View this post on Instagram @sir_twitch_alot and I like to do a little preshow workout together.
