Instructions

  1. Starting Position:

    • Begin by lying flat on your back on a comfortable surface, like a mat or carpet.

    • Hold the water bottle with both hands above your chest, arms extended straight.

  2. Body Positioning:

    • Lift your legs off the ground so that your feet are about 6 inches above the floor.

    • Engage your core to flatten your lower back against the ground.

    • Your arms should be extended overhead while gripping the water bottle.

  3. Rocking Movement:

    • Slowly rock backward by leaning your torso toward the ground while keeping your feet elevated.

    • Aim to bring your shoulders slightly off the ground as you rock backward.

    • Maintain a smooth and controlled motion.

  4. Return:

    • As you rock back, let your body naturally return to the starting position.

    • Make sure to engage your core throughout the movement to maintain stability.

  5. Repetitions:

    • Perform 10 to 15 rocks to build strength and stability in your core.

    • Rest as needed between sets.

Tips:

  • Keep your movements slow and controlled to avoid any strain.

  • Ensure that your lower back remains pressed against the mat to protect your spine.

  • Focus on using your core muscles to initiate the rocking motion rather than relying too much on momentum.
