Lie down on the floor with your knees slightly bent and hands extended towards the ceiling. Keep your head in a comfortable and neutral position.
STEP 2
Leading with your chest towards the ceiling, contract your abdominals and raise your shoulders off the floor. At the same time also raise your legs up towards the ceiling and attempt to touch your hands to your feet.
STEP 3
Return to the start position.
STEP 4
Repeat entire movement for the prescribed number of repetitions.
Special Notes
Don't jerk your upper body or legs up because this will defeat the effectiveness of the exercise. You raise your torso and legs by contracting your abdominals.
