Practice the following postures regularly to tone tummy and prevent sagging:

SPINAL TWIST

Bend right knee. Cross left arm over right knee. Stretch left hand to calf, ankle or floor. Twist upper torso and head far right. Focus eyes over right shoulder. Repeat to left.

 
SHOULDER STAND

Bend knees up to chest. Slip hands under hips for support. Lift butt and middle back up. Stretch nape of neck into floor. Continue to lift until torso is fully inverted, resting on shoulders. Avoid this posture if you have vision or vertabrae dis-orders.
