"By far, my favourite at home exercises are variations of planks," said licenced Pilates instructor Elyse Kaye. "They work your entire body and core." She recommended slow mountain climbers, a move that targets your lower abs with a challenging in-plank crunch.
- Start in plank with your shoulders over your hands.
- Bring your left knee forward toward your chest, pulling your abs to your spine to deepen the ab work, holding the position for 2 to 3 seconds.
- Switch legs, bringing the right knee forward while moving the right leg back. This completes one rep.
