Dead Bug

The name may make you laugh, but this stability exercise fires up the core, working both the front and back of the body.

Lie on your back with a neutral spine and your hips and knees at right angles with your palms pressed into your thighs just above your knees.
Pull your abs to your spine keeping your ribs and pelvis still as you lengthen your right arm and leg out until they are almost parallel to the floor. Keep your torso and spine completely stable as the arm and leg move.
Return to the starting position, and repeat on the left side to complete one rep.

These are awesome workouts! Form is the most important. I've done all of these and suggest that you pick 5, and do all of them daily. I do my abs after my cardio and strength training....it's my dessert. Here's what I call "15 minutes to awesome abs" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aE17-YbL_1k, but any of these will get you the look, if you focus on form and not reps.
