7 at-home exercises to work your core
Nike master trainer Kirsty Godso on the best ab moves to do with no equipment.
For a complete workout, do each move for 45 seconds and rest for 15 seconds in between.
Start by laying on your back and putting your legs in a table top position. Alternate extending one arm and leg and return to tabletop position.
From tabletop position, place both hands behind your head. Tap your left elbow to your right knee and reverse.
In tabletop position with your hands behind your head, flex your feet and lower your heel to the ground. Return to tabletop position and repeat alternating feet.
From tabletop position, extend your legs into the air. Lower your legs 45 degrees and return. Keep your core tight and raise your head for added difficulty.
Lay on your back with your hands on the floor by your side. Bend your legs so your heels are close to your body and lift your knees towards your chest. (Your body should leave the floor slightly.)
Start on your hands and knees with your toes curled so they're touching the ground. Lift your knees so they're a few inches above the ground and hold.
Looking for an extra challenge? Alternate tapping each shoulder while remaining in the same position.
For even more exercises, the Nike Training Club app has more than 185 online workouts and is free for U.S. consumers.
