Sometimes, getting out equipment and laying on a yoga mat feels like its own workout.

For the girlies who are busy (or just don’t want to deal), this one’s for you.

CorePower Yoga teacher Sabrina Washington has laid out five easy standing moves to get your abs burning, all while you catch up on Real Housewives. Sound good? We thought so, too.

Press play on the video, and follow along with the written instructions below.

SINGLE-LEG MOUNTAIN

How to:

  1. Stand on one foot with a tiny bend in your knee, lift your other leg up in front of you.
  2. Bend your lifted knee and flex your foot.
  3. Level your lifted knee with your hip, and align your lifted heel under your knee.
  4. Arms can either extend up or connect your palms together at your heart.

STANDING FIGURE-FOUR

How to:

  1. Connect your palms together at your heart.
  2. Lift one foot and cross your ankle over your opposite thigh.
  3. Bend your standing knee to squat down, keeping your weight back and your lifted foot flexed.

REVOLVED STANDING FIGURE-FOUR

How to:

  1. Touch your thumbs to your heart*.
    *This connection ensures your obliques do the work, rather than swinging your arms.
  2. Twist your torso to the right.
    (Optional) Return your torso to the center.
  3. Then twist to the left. Repeat eight times.

AIRPLANE POSE

How to:

  1. Connect your palms together at your heart.
  2. Tilt your torso forward, working towards parallel to the ground.
  3. Kick your lifted heel back, to straighten your leg back.
  4. Flex your lifted foot down, and turn your toes towards the ground to level your hip.
  5. Tip: Prioritize the extension of your leg and spine, rather than how “parallel” you can make your body. Your core is still getting a workout and it is easier to balance.
  6. Option to keep your hands at your heart or extend your arms back.
  7. (Optional) Flow slowly from Single-Leg Mountain > Airplane > Single-Leg Mountain > Airplane

HORSE POSE TWIST DRILL

How to:

  1. Step your feet apart, wider than your hips.
  2. Swivel your heels in, with your toes turned out.
  3. Bend your knees to come into a wide-leg squat. Check to make sure your knees point in the same direction as your toes.
  4. Point your tailbone down.
  5. Unite your palms together at your heart, lift your chest up to touch your thumbs*
    *This connection ensures your obliques do the work, rather than swinging your arms.
  6. Twist your torso to the Right. Return to Center. Twist your torso to the Left.
  7. Repeat eight times on each side… or do more!
