Planks and hover planks. The cross temple knee reach with your back flat on the mat. The mountain climber (just make sure your back is flat not arched). Other pilates where you lie on your back and move your legs can still work your abs too.

@Barry...FYI situps are the worst for your low back. Cause more low back injuries than improper lifting.

Leg lifts and planks are good. Any exercise that makes you twist has the potential to cause disk problems if you do it the wrong way.

Speak to an orthopedist or physical therapist about this. Following amateur advice you find online is not the smartest thing to do.

Sit ups are the best way. Start slowly with only a few. They will also tone up the muscles supporting your spine.
