I have found single leg planks to be one of the most intensive things for working on stability of one of my knees which had torn ligaments earlier this year.
People often forget that the spine is not really up to flexing about under load, all the muscles in your torso are mainly there to stabilise it. Things like bridges/planks use this muscles in their intended function unlike situps/crunches which are effectively spine destroying.
