What are good ab workouts to do at home without equipment?
So I really don’t have the money or time to go to the gym. Instead I’d rather have something simple that I can do at home. I don’t have any real equipment and I’m not looking for like washboard abs just want to tone that area and keep it flat. Any help would be appreciative. Thanks! 
crunches and leg lifts (as well as variations of the two)
google search "bicycle crunches," too – I recently heard they really work to keep your stomach flat
check on youtube for instructional videos, also (search crunches or ab exercises)
good luck! =)

Hey, Ferd. You sound a lot like me: I wanted exercises to do from home without equipment. I don’t have time for a gym membership either. We differ in that I DO want washboard abs. (As of this writing, I don’t have them quite yet… but I’m on my way!) Anyway, this is what I’m doing and I think you might like it.
Try this exercise out:
Take a deep breath and hold it. Tighten up your abs as hard as you can while slowly exhaling. Keep your abs REALLY TIGHT for 30 seconds if you can (being sure to exhale throughout — and inhaling as needed — you don’t want to pass out by not breathing). Repeat this a few times. Later on in the day, do it again, only this time from a slouching position or lean forward. You can vary this a bit, too, but giving attention to your side (love handle) area. You can even do them again at odd moments of the day if you want.
If you try this once you will see how effective this can be!
And that’s it! Do these again each day.
The link below has a similar exercise for the abs, too. I recommend you check this one out as well. I do both exercises.
All I can do is tell you what I personally have done. And this works for me.
