I also like reverse crunches.
Not too sure of my ability to describe this, but here goes!

Feet shoulder width apart. Keep shoulders even.
Standing Straight with 5-10 pound weight in left hand, arm straight, lightly rest palm of right hand on right lower abdomen. Tilt/lean to the left, slowly, bringing weight level to the top of knee pause 2 seconds, and raise back up slowly to starting position. Do not bend forward or back, only tilt to the side. Start with lower weights and 3 sets of 15/day on each side.

Work up to 3 sets of 30 each side.

Non working palm on stomach helps draw attention to the muscle group being worked.
