If nights spent crunching away while watching men’s figure skating in Sochi haven’t helped you land those six-pack abs, there’s something you need to cut out of the routine. (The dancing on ice can actually stay.) But relying on moves like crunches and sit ups to firm your middle isn’t effective. “People tend to think that the core only consists of the abs or ‘six pack,’ but there are so many other muscles that run up and down the back, around the waist and hips and down the thighs that you need to target as well,” says Chris Uy, a personal trainer at Sports Club/LA in New York City. “That’s why you need moves with rotations and twists that work the entire core. Sit ups and crunches won’t cut it.” We tapped Uy for the eight best moves that will get you on the way to a tighter, stronger center — Sochi viewing optional.
