Side Plank
This exercise is a secret weapon to help tighten and shrink your waistline. It works the deep abdominal muscles (obliques, transverse abdominus) that many abs exercises don't reach.Add it to your routine as variety to the standard 'plank'
How to do it:
Lie on your right side with your knees straight. Prop your upper body up on your left elbow and forearm. Raise your hips until your body forms a straight line from your ankles to your shoulders. Aim to hold for 1 minute but as a starting point hold position for 30 seconds.
Turn around so that you're lying on your left side and repeat.
