Tutorial

  1. 1
    Lie on your back on the floor and stretch out your legs. Place your arms on the floor at the side of your body. This is your starting position.
  2. 2
    Move your knees diagonally towards your left shoulder by bending your legs and tensing your right lateral abdominal muscles. Lift your lower back off the floor. Exhale as you do this.
  3. 3
    Slowly bring your legs back to the starting position so that they are stretched forward again. Keep your abdominal muscles tensed even in the lowest position. Breathe in as you do so.
  4. 4
    One repetition with the left side has now been completed. Then repeat this process with the right side until the specified number of repetitions have been completed with both sides.
Tip
Your upper back is in contact with the floor throughout the exercise. Your abdominal muscles are tensed throughout the exercise. Try to work only from your abdominal muscles and don't put too much strain on your legs.
