Setup
Lie on your back with hands lightly touching behind your head and legs extended. Lift your shoulder blades off the ground and raise your legs a few inches above the floor.
How to do it
- Bring your right elbow toward your left knee while pulling that knee toward your chest.
- Simultaneously extend your right leg straight out, hovering above the ground.
- Switch sides in a pedaling motion, bringing left elbow to right knee.
- Rotate through your torso rather than just moving your elbows.
- Keep your lower back pressed toward the floor throughout the movement.
Watch out for
- ✗Pulling on the neck with hands instead of supporting the head gently.
- ✗Moving too fast and losing the rotation through the core.
- ✗Letting the extended leg drop too low or rest on the ground between reps.
