Malaika captioned the workout video, “AB fab…” and used hashtags like #malaikasmotivation, #absandcore, #fitnessfreak, and more. The video shows Malaika doing a variation of crunches, for which she held weights in both her hands.
Malaika did the workout by lying on the mat with her body titled sideways, one arm resting on the floor, the other raised above her head, and her legs raised parallel to the floor. Then, she moved her body by bringing her torso and arm forward and raising one leg to form a V. She did the exercise for a few repetitions and did it again on the other side.
