Fight Fat with the Oblique Trimmer

“Get a handle on your love handles with this ab exercise that focuses on the obliques,” says Austin. “And since the knees are lifted, the move targets the lower tummy area, too.” To do: Come to a sitting position on the floor with your legs in front of you, your knees bent. Holding a towel taut in your hands, extend your arms straight out in front of you at shoulder height. Drop your knees to the right as you twist your upper body to the left. Return to the center, then drop your knees to the left as you twist your upper body to the right. Continue to twist, alternating sides for one minute.
