Recommendations: 2-3 Sets, 10-15 Reps
Lie on an exercise mat with your lower back pressed against the floor. Place your hands lightly against the sides of your head. Raise your legs straight up. This is the starting position. Slowly raise your shoulders and upper back off the ground (about 30 degrees). Contract your ab muscles tight. Exhale during this movement. Hold this position for 2-3 seconds. Slowly return to the starting position. Inhale during this movement. Repeat for the recommended number of repetitions.
