The Awesome Move That Will Work Your Abs Like Crazy

Kick up your core routine with this bodyweight exercise.

The kick under might just be the best abs exercise that you’re not already doing. It works your core, fires up your obliques, and gets your heart racing.
You’ll feel this move work your core muscles immediately, but this exercise is a total-body scorcher. You have to engage your arms, shoulders, and hips in order to stay balanced throughout the exercise. Start slow and really focus on staying centered—twisting and lifting in unison takes a little coordination. When you feel comfortable with the move, pick up the pace for a quick, cardio-core burn.

  • Start on all fours and tuck your toes. Lift your knees a few inches off the floor.
  • Lift your left foot off the ground. Rotate your torso to the right and kick your left foot under and to the right, pivoting on your right foot. Lift your right hand off the ground.
  • Do 5-10 reps, keeping your knees lifted the entire time. Then, switch sides.
  • If you’re just easing into a workout program for the first time (but just can’t with another plank or crunch) try this beginner modification: Start on all fours with your toes tucked and lift your knees a few inches off the floor. Instead of kicking under, just hold this position for 10-20 seconds.
