Forget planks — this seated ab workout sculpts your core in just 10 minutes

Strong abs are far more than just an aesthetic goal — they can help you sit with better posture, and protect your spine from injury. But not all ab workouts were created equal, and if you’re a complete beginner, you have limited mobility, or you’re looking for an ab workout you can do from your desk, you might be looking for a seated ab workout. 

Seated ab workouts are low-impact workouts that can be done from a chair, targeting your abdominal and core muscles. Unlike ab workouts that involve lying on your back on an exercise mat, seated ab workouts are accessible to those who can’t get down on the floor, have limited space, or simply want a workout that they can do sat from their office chair during a meeting (just remember to mute your mic!)
