Exercises for a flatter stomach

Why? This exercise strengthens the lower and upper abdominal muscles, the back muscles and the thighs.
- Lie on your back with your legs stretched out and against each other. Raise your legs several inches from the ground and place your hands under your buttocks.
- Raise both legs together until they form a right angle to the ground. Hold this position for 5 seconds and make sure that your back remains straight and that your knees do not bend.
