- Lie on your back with your knees bent.

- Raise your hips off the floor until your hips are aligned with your knees and shoulders.
- Hold for three deep breaths. Return to the starting position and repeat.
Any exercise that involves the use of your abdominal and back muscles in coordinated fashion counts as a core exercise.
