Tutorial

1

Kneel on the swinging platform. Position your forearms on the support provided and hold on to the handles with your hands. Turn your lower legs to the side so that your knees are pointing to the right.
2

Move your legs powerfully towards your chest by tensing your left lateral abdominal muscles. Exhale as you do this.
3

Slowly bring your legs back to the starting position. Keep your abdominal muscles tensed even in the lowest position. Breathe in as you do so.
4

One repetition has now been completed. Repeat this process for the specified number of repetitions, first with your left side and then with your right side.

Tip

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. Avoid taking momentum with you.
