Instructions
Proper Position
- Lie on your back on a mat, with your arms along your sides and your legs extended on the floor.
- Keep your back flat against the mat and engage your core.
Movement
- Lift your legs and upper body simultaneously, bringing your knees toward your chest.
- Allow your arms to follow the movement, sliding along the floor or reaching slightly forward.
- Contract your abs to bring your upper and lower body closer together, forming a compact position.
- Slowly return to the starting position, controlling the movement as you extend your legs and torso.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Breathing
- Inhale as you return to the extended position.
- Exhale as you bring your knees toward your chest.
Tips
- Keep the movement smooth and controlled to maximize abdominal activation.
- Maintain contact between your lower back and the mat to prevent strain.
- If the exercise is too challenging, keep your knees slightly bent during the extension.
