Here is one of the best tummy and core conditioning exercises you can ever do. It really will develop the muscular strength in your stomach to an amazing degree.
Find two raised and stable objects, be it two chairs, two boxes or two push up bars like i am using in the video. Place your hands on them about shoulder width apart, brace the arms straight against your sides and lift your feet off of the floor. The easier version is to keep your legs bent at 90 degrees at the hip and also at the knee. Hold this position whilst mainitaining a regular breathing pattern and count. Rest briefly and then repeat for three or four sets. It may only be a 5 second hold to start with but you will get stronger at this quickly if you put in the practice. As you improve you will want to practice keeping the legs straight out in front of you with no bend to form an L-shape. Hence the name. As a tip, the higher the objects you are resting on the lower you will be able to hang the legs which makes it easier. As you get stronger get lower to the floor and get the legs nearer to parallel.
