It’s no secret that your core musculature is one of the most important muscle groups you’ve got.

You should really feel the move in your obliques.
Same goes for the side plank crunch (a personal favorite of mine!).
Remember to do a warm-up before you get started on any of these workouts.
Morgan Johnson/Alexandra Genova
Your warm-up should be at least five minutes long and incorporate dynamic movements, not static stretching.
Trythis six-minute one, which doesn’t require any equipment, or do one of your own.
