Introduction
The video introduces a solution for those who struggle to consistently train their abs. It promises a 10-minute routine consisting of three core exercises that require no equipment and can be done every morning. This routine is designed to target the upper and lower abs, as well as the obliques, providing a comprehensive abdominal workout.
Crucifix Crunch
The first exercise is the Crucifix Crunch. To perform it, lie flat on your back with arms and legs stretched out. Crunch in, attempting to touch your heels, then return to the starting position. It's important to keep your head off the ground and avoid yanking your neck. Aim for smooth reps, squeezing your abs at the top of each crunch. The recommendation is 10 to 15 reps for three sets.

Core Hold Series
The second exercise is the Core Hold Series, described as a slow burn. It starts with a leg down hold, where you lie with your hands under your hips, legs straight out, and toes pointed, holding without letting your heels touch the ground. Next is the hollow hold, with arms overhead in the same position. The series finishes with leg flutters, which involve small, fast kicks while keeping everything tight. Each hold should be maintained for 30 seconds with no rest in between.
Side Plank Raises
The final exercise is Side Plank Raises, which target the obliques. Start with your elbow under your shoulder and feet stacked. Drop your hip and then lift it back up in controlled reps, avoiding any twitching or wobbling. Aim to feel a burn on your side, indicating that the exercise is being performed correctly. Hold for 30 to 45 seconds on each side, maintaining a straight line from head to toe without sagging.

The video concludes by reiterating the simplicity and effectiveness of the three-move, 10-minute ab workout. It encourages viewers to do the routine every morning for seven days to tighten their core and improve posture.
