How to do it

  1. 1Lie on your back, with your hands on your abs and your legs bent to 90 degrees. Your upper body should be slightly raised above the floor.
  2. 2Tighten your abs and pull your knees in toward the chest. Hold for 1-2 seconds. Use your core muscles to control the movement.
  3. 3Return to the initial position and repeat.

⚠️ Common mistakes

  • Use momentum to lift your legs up.
  • Swing your hips.
