To do this exercise, you need to lie on your back and bring your knees toward your chest. Then, lift your hips slightly off the floor using the lower core.Crisscross: One needs to lift both legs in the air while lying on the floor for this third exercise. Thereafter, move your legs in a scissor-like motion while engaging your core. This move targets the obliques (side abs). If you wish to try something on an advanced level, then here’s what can help you: Curl-Up (Advanced): In this the you need to lift your legs into a 90-degree angle (tabletop position).
