Instructions

Setup

  • Begin by lying flat on your back on a yoga mat.

  • Extend your legs straight out and stretch your arms overhead.

Movement

  • Engagement: Simultaneously lift your torso and your legs off the floor using your core muscles.

  • Positioning: Aim to reach your hands toward your feet while maintaining a straight back, balancing your body on your sit bones to create a 'V' shape.

  • Execution: Pause briefly at the top of the movement, ensuring your core remains engaged throughout.

  • Return: Slowly control your descent back to the starting position without letting your shoulders or legs touch the floor completely if looking for an extra challenge, or rest flat for a standard rep.
