Step-by-step instructions
- 1
Lie on your back with your arms extended out to the sides for stability, palms down.
- 2
Raise your legs to 90 degrees so they are perpendicular to the floor.
- 3
Engage your core and slowly lower both legs together to the right, stopping before they touch the floor.
- 4
Bring your legs back to center, then lower them to the left.
- 5
Continue alternating sides for the prescribed reps.
Notes
Keep your upper back and shoulders pressed to the floor throughout. The slower you move, the harder the exercise. If 90 degrees is too challenging, start with knees bent at 90 degrees.
