INSTRUCTIONS:

Starting Position: Lie down on your back. Start with your legs straight in the air with your hips tilted slightly back towards your head. Your abs should be pulled in tight with no space between your lower back and the floor (no arch).

Step 1: Keeping the same position in your torso (abs engaged and no arch), keep your right leg high and slowly lower your left leg down to right above the ground.

Step 2: STOP and hold for 2 seconds, keeping your abs pulled in tight and your back flat against the ground.

Step 3: Switch sides, bringing your left leg up high and your right leg down to right above the ground.

Step 4: STOP and hold for 2 seconds. Repeat, alternating sides with each rep.
