PLATE LUNCH CRUNCH – Ab Exercise I’m loving right now.

Starting position: Hold a weight plate or dumbbell in your hands, legs / body at 90 degrees, shoulders slightly off floor, abs contracted, pelvis tilted under so your lower back is firmly against the floor.

The Move: Exhale as you press plate upward toward the sky, flexing the abs, holding for a beat at the top, lowering slowly back to starting position. 3 sets, 15-20 reps.
