For a flat belly, do side planks
This yoga-inspired exercise will engage your lower abdominal muscles and obliques to help you trim, tone and tighten your waist. Focus on contracting your abs throughout the move, but continue to breathe regularly. Don't hold your breath!
1 Lie on your side with your legs extended. Prop up your body with your forearm against the floor, your hand facing forward.
2 Exhale as you lift your hips off the floor, balancing your body weight on your forearm and the outer edge of your foot. Hold for 30 seconds, breathing normally throughout; repeat once more on the same side. Switch sides and repeat. Rest for one minute, then repeat two more sets (rest for one minute between each set).
