Crunches!
Note: Don’t put your hands behind your head and you don’t have to go so high.

a "belly" doesn’t get fixed with ab exercises. a "belly" goes away thanks to a combination of a proper exercise program in conjunction with a solid nutrition regimine. if you’re one of those people who is just convinced though that a million crunches will give you a 6-pack, try: supine leg raises with a reverse crunch at the top of the movement, hanging leg raises, V-ups, eagle sit-ups, woodchoppers, twist-touches with a medicine ball, planks, etc.
if you have a bad back, you also need to be working your back, especially with bodyweight exercises such as hyperextensions and supermans. add good mornings if your back is up to that task.

Try calenetics, it is method from the 70’ but it really works for people who has back problems. I have been doing it for several years with fantastic results.
Check on google you will find information about it.

try doing hovers first, this will strengthen your deep abdominals and also help with your back problem then progress to ab work..!
