Skip the sit-ups and try these abs exercises.

Sit-ups are far from the only way to train your core! Besides, doing a million sit-ups in a row doesn't target or work your core all that effectively—if at all. So what should you do instead? Try this tummy-tightening resistance band workout.

Resistance bands are portable and affordable, making them the perfect tool for toning your abs anytime and anywhere. The moves below will successfully sculpt your core if you focus on quality rather than quantity. Try for 10 repetitions of each, and focus on holding your core in and maintaining proper form and alignment. Don’t rush through it, and remember to breathe!
