Instructions:
- 1Sit on the edge of a padded stool with your feet on the floor
- 2Place your hands on the stool at your sides for balance
- 3Exhale as you pull both knees up towards your chest as far as comfortable
- 4Pause and hold for a moment, then slowly lower your feet back to the floor while inhaling
- 5Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions
Tips:
- Keep your back straight throughout the exercise
- Engage your core to control the movement
- Try not to use your arms to pull your knees up - the power should come from your abs and hips
- If you feel any discomfort in your lower back, try to perform the exercise more slowly or reduce the range of motion
