Across-Body Hold Leg Lift

Setup

1. Lie flat on your back on a mat with your legs extended.

2. Place your hands lightly behind your head, elbows flared out.

3. Lift your shoulders off the ground, engaging your core.

Movement

1. Bring one knee toward your chest while simultaneously rotating your upper body to bring the opposite elbow toward that knee.

2. Extend your other leg straight out, hovering slightly above the floor.

3. Return to the starting center position with both legs bent at a 90-degree angle and shoulders lifted.

4. Repeat the movement on the opposite side in a controlled, rhythmic motion.

Keys to Success

• Keep your lower back pressed firmly into the mat throughout the movement.

• Focus on rotating from your ribcage and shoulders rather than just pulling with your neck.
