On top of them you could do lunges, planks and leg raises too.

Just teach her good form with manageable weight.
5 sets of 5 reps for each exercise will be a good starting point.

Nah we don't.
Was just thinking of ideas for whufc to do so maybe just planks then, they're great for core strength.

PS Planks are gay

Then you were lifting too much to begin with.

Nope, your anterior core muscles function in a number of different ways. Silly to think you can ignore targetting them more directly. Getting people squatting or deadlifting is a good start but once you start doing them semi regularly you need to make sure you balance the work on both the front and back. Some guys will be fine and never have a problem, but I bet a lot do unless they consciously adress imbalances.
