This little trick can be done with any core exercise where your back is against the ground. Simply tie the band to something, stretch the band a few feet away, and then perform the exercise with your back braced against the band. Breathe into your belly and think about expanding your mid-section three dimensionally. The contact with the band teaches you to brace without going into lumbar extension. And the tension in the band forces you to actively squeeze and protect your spine because any leak of tension will cause the band to snap away from you.  Do these at the end of your workout for 2-4 sets until failure, or use it in your warm-up to activate your core in minimal time. –  Calvin Huynh
