Instructions

Setup

  • Start by lying on your back on a mat.

  • Prop yourself up onto your forearms, keeping your elbows directly under your shoulders.

  • Engage your core to lift your chest slightly, maintaining a stable posture.

Execution

  • Lift both legs off the ground, keeping them relatively straight but with a slight bend in the knees if necessary for comfort.

  • Extend one leg high toward the ceiling while lowering the other toward the floor without touching it.

  • In a smooth, controlled motion, switch the position of your legs by alternating which one is high and which one is low.

  • Keep your lower back pressed firmly into the mat using your core strength, ensuring your hips remain stable throughout the movement.

  • Perform the movement with control, focusing on the contraction in your abdomen rather than using momentum.
