Instructions:
- 1Lie face down on the floor, legs straight and arms crossed over the chest
- 2Tighten your glute muscles and lift your upper body off the ground
- 3Try to maintain a straight line from your head to your heels
- 4Lower your upper body back down to the ground in a controlled manner
- 5Repeat the movement for the set amount of reps
Tips:
- Engage your core throughout the exercise
- Avoid straining the neck. The head should lift as part of a spine extension, not as a separate movement
- Control the movement. Avoid jerkiness or momentum
- Avoid hinging from the low back. Your entire torso should lift as a unit
