What are some effective ab exercises that don't involve laying on the floor on your back?

I have a permanent coccyx (butt bone) injury that makes it impossible to do ab exercises that involve laying on the floor on my back, like crunches and sit-ups. The positions of these exercises put pressure on the injured area that makes it painful when coming up into the crunch. Since this isn’t an injury that is going to go away, I need to find some alternative ab exercises that are performed standing up, laying on my side, etc.

What are some good ab exercises?

I’m really skinny and I really don’t have any fat in the abdomen area, but I’m trying to get my abs defined. A lot of the articles for ab exercises I’m seeing have things like "fat loss tips for great abs". Since I don’t need to lose fat, I’m wondering if I need to do different kinds of exercises than what those articles are suggesting.
I’m also doing cardio exercises. Should I do ab exercises before or after I do cardio? Or should I do them at completely separate times?

How do you feel about ab exercises?

I’m switching to a weight lifting routine which skips ab exercises altogether. I’m going to do 2 days a week of circuit cardio instead but aside from that my abs won’t get any work. But I want nice abs!

Is this a good idea or a bad idea?

I heard that ab exercises are mostly a waste of time since there’s no such thing as spot reduction.

        Now lets perform the exercise. To begin, lie on your back with your knees bent at a 90, feet flat on the floor and the small of your back pushed flat into the floor. Take in a
        very slow long breathe and start to slowly exhale ¾ of your air while you are pulling your belly button down toward your spine (I like to put my
        index finger on my belly-button and feel it raise as I take the long breathe in and then feel it
        start downward as I exhale ¾ of my lung
        capacity). While at the same time pushing your lower back into the floor and drive you chin down toward your chest slightly. Once you have ¾ of
        your air out hold your breathe and suck in through your throat with your breathe being held for 5-10 seconds. As you are holding your breath
        and sucking in, think about pulling your innards up and under your rib-cage. It is called the ab vacuum for a reason, it is a little hard to come
        out of it and resume your normal breathing;

        But you will, and once you do relax and take a couple breathes and repeat; Starting out do 1 set of
        6-9 repetitions, 2-3 times per week.

        You can do the ab vacuum anywhere, and need no equipment. It’s a great way to wake up, or to end your day. It will take lots of practice and
        each week you will be able to feel the muscles working more and more. Once you get good at the technique you will be able to feel a ½ circle burning sensation in the pubic area. Don’t be
        alarmed, just feel good about mastering one of the most unique and effective abdominal exercises
        out there. Please don’t give up on this exercise, once you master it you will be able to reverse gravity, and start to put back in place
        what years of inactivity and bad posture has started to let hang over your belt line.

        We have had several clients lose 3-10 inches off their waist with only 3-5 hours of exercise per week; and that includes cardio. You can do it
        too. If you are ready go to
