Union and her sister, Tracy, do all the moves on folded-up cardboard boxes to show that you don&#8217;t even need a mat to get your core work in.

You hit all aspects of your core, including your lower abs and obliques. The advanced final move was level-up crunches, which really had me feeling the burn deep in my abs.
