Here's some exercises to help you strengthen your core and flatten your tummy. Now these are not as easy as they sound. First and foremost, remember to breathe as you exercise. Muscle need oxygen, so if you're not breathing, they're not getting any!
Lie on your side with legs extended. With the arm that is against the floor, push up so that the forearm is against the floor and you are propped up. Take a deep breath in and as you exhale, lift youf hips off the floor so that your body weight is supported by the forearm that is on the floor and the outer edge of your foot. Hold this for 15 seconds. If you are unable to do 15 seconds, then start with 10 or 5 seconds. Repeat again. Rest for 1 full minute and turn so that the up side is now the down side (in other words, switch sides being against the floor). Do the same procedure 2 times on this side.
Your goal is to increase your time each day until you can do 1 full minute, repeated twice on each side. (that's a total of 4 minutes with 1 minute rest between sides)
