The following ab workouts focus on strengthening your core. Some of them (especially the long ones) can absolutely be done as your sole workout for the day. With the quick ones though, you could do them as a finisher to a longer workout or pair them with 20-30 minutes of cardio.
The workouts are organized chronologically. All the newest ones have follow-along videos to go with them. For all my workout videos in one place, be sure to subscribe to me on YouTube.
