This floor-based core exercise targets your lower abs and teaches control through your entire range of motion.
Instructions
- Lie flat on your back with your legs extended and hands by your sides or underneath your hips for support.
- Bend your knees and draw them toward your chest while exhaling.
- Keep your calves parallel to the floor as you contract your abdominal muscles.
- Pause briefly at the top of the motion, then slowly extend your legs back to the starting position as you inhale.
- Focus on smooth, steady control — avoid letting your feet touch the floor between reps.
