Repeat the exercises in each circuit three times to complete one workout. Rest as little as possible between moves and no more than 90 seconds, Botsford says.
Note: If you have any injuries or medical condition that might limit your ability to exercise, check with your doctor before starting a new workout. Lie on back with arms extended, reaching straight from shoulders to the sky.
Bend and raise knees so they form a degree angle. Shins should be parallel to the floor. Squeeze abs and press lower back into the floor. Repeat two more times. Place hands and knees on the ground, then place forearms on the ground to support your body weight.
Elbows should be directly beneath your shoulders; hands can be holding one another forearms angled in toward one another or flat on the ground forearms parallel to one another.
Step feet back so your body forms a straight line, parallel to the floor from your shoulders to your ankles. Brace your core and hold this position for as long as possible up to 45 seconds, then rest for 15 seconds.
Begin in plank pose. Place right elbow directly beneath the middle of your chest facing forward, then lift left hand to your waist, stacking your left foot on top of your right so left leg is stacked on top of right, too. Lift your left arm to the sky, keeping hips lifted and glutes squeezed. Hold for as long as possible up to 45 seconds, then rest for 15 seconds. Repeat two more times, then switch to the other side and repeat. Begin seated in a V position on the floor, balancing on your butt with legs extended diagonally in front of you and arms extended diagonally behind you so your limbs form a V shape.
Bring right elbow toward left knee, keeping chest open and extending right leg out long. Repeat on opposite side with left elbow coming to right knee. Do as many reps as possible while maintaining proper form, up to 20 reps.
Return to a side plank position. Lift top arm straight to the sky. If too difficult, modify by dropping your bottom knee to the floor with that leg pointing behind you. Bend slightly at the waist to reach down and pass your top arm through the gap between your side and the floor.

If you could pick one part of your body to change, sculpt and shape, what would it be? For those of us with multiple body parts that don't quite match our desired shape, that's a tough question.
But, almost none of us would turn down the promise of a flat, sculpted belly with a six-pack for everyone to see and admire. Barring that, there are genetic factors that may stand in our way, making the goal of flat abs one that's just out of reach.
We may not always be able to control how our abs look, but we can control how strong they are. Use a stability ball. Doing a crunch on a ball makes your back pre-stretch at the start of the movement, which makes it harder to start the crunch. For added difficulty, hold a weight, cable, or elastic tubing behind your head for resistance. Use an decline bench. These benches at the gym lock you into a position that makes you work against gravity to do your crunch.
To make a decline bench crunch even more difficult, use tip 1 or 2 as you perform the movement. A favorite workout of mine is to run on a treadmill as hard as possible for 30 seconds, then to jump off and do repetitions of an abdominal exercise, such as a crunch. When you're breathing hard, crunches get tough.
