Abdominal Hold

This is the sort of move that looks so wonky, you sure hope your roommate doesn't catch you doing it  unless she also gets to see you look stellar in a bathing suit, in which case she just may pull up a chair.

Abdominal

Do it:

Sit tall on the edge of a sturdy chair (or step with four risers) and place your hands on the edge with your fingers pointing toward your knees.

Tighten your abs and bring your toes 2 to 4 inches off the floor. Lift your butt off the chair.

Hold this position for as long as you can aim for 5 to 10 seconds.

Lower yourself down and repeat.

Continue this exercise for 1 minute.
