Abs Exercises at Home:  Steam Engine – here is the only workout you do while standing up

• Place your hands behind your head; bring your right elbow to touch your left knee by both bending and raising your knee. This is all done while crunching your right armpit to the left side of your hip. Now return to your starting position and repeat with the other side, your left armpit crunching to the right side of your hip. Do around 16 to 20 reps of these.

Abs Exercise at Home: Toe Tap

• While lying on the floor, place your hands lightly behind your ears. Bring your legs up until your knees are over your hips and your lower legs are parallel to the floor. This should give your body a 90 degree angle look. Now crunch forward. This brings your shoulders just off the ground. While in the same position point your toes downwards and have your right foot lowered as far as you possibly can. Make sure you do this without lifting your back off the ground. You can return to the starting position and repeat the movement with your left leg. Do around 10 reps for this abs workout.

The Abs Raised Knee-In – An abs exercise at home that works the lower abs. This is an area that many people usually not workout.

• Lie on your back with your arms to your side. Your palms are to be down just under your butt and lower back. Now extend your leg out as your press the small of your back. All this you do with your heels around 3 inches off the floor. Now hover you left leg just above the floor while lifting your right leg towards your chest. Hold that position than repeat with your right leg hovering over the floor and your left leg meeting your chest. When doing this abs workout, make sure you tighten your abs. Do around 15 to 20 repetitions of each.

The Abs Ball Bicycle – for this abs workout, you will need an exercise ball.

• With your back on the exercise ball, place your hands lightly behind your ears and bend your knees at a 90 degree angle with your feet flat on the ground. With your right foot firmly planted on the floor, lift your left leg off the floor and bring your left knee to meet your right elbow. Do around 8 to 10 reps on that side before switching legs and doing the same on the other side.

Abs Exercise at Home: The Medicine Ball Throw – you will need a medicine ball and a partner for this abs workout

• While lying on your back, bend your knees while keeping your feet firmly planted to the ground. Hold a light medicine ball just beyond your head. Do not let the ball touch the floor. Your partner sits around 5 to 10 feet in front of you with bent knees, feet on the floor and arms in a straight position over their head ready to catch the medicine ball. Keep your arms straight and curl your body up to throw the ball to your partner. Now remain in the seated position until your partner receives the ball and throws it back to you. Repeat the process for maximum effectiveness. Do this for around 12 to 15 reps.
