Don't know what a table top is! This is a description of the plank:

PLANK

1. Get into a modified push-up position, resting your weight on your forearms. Your elbows should be positioned directly under your shoulders.

2. Your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles.

3. Simultaneously pull your belly button toward your spine and squeeze your glutes tightly.

4. This tilts your pelvis backward and flattens the curvature in your lower back, which, in turn, increases the activation of your transverse abdominis.

5. Keep your back flat as you take shallow breaths for 30-45 seconds. Then rest 3O seconds and repeat two times.

Like I said, it's isometric contraction but I think it works. You can definitely feel the abs. Whether you can see them or not is a different matter.
