Proper Position
- Lie on your side, resting on one elbow placed directly beneath your shoulder.

- Engage your core and keep your body straight, forming a line from shoulders to feet.
- Place your other arm along your body or on your hip.
Movement

- Repeat this motion fluidly for the desired number of repetitions.
- Switch sides to balance the workload.
Breathing

- Focus on engaging your obliques and keep a controlled pace to avoid jerky movements.
- Fix your gaze on a point ahead of you to maintain balance.
