  • Maintaining great spinal alignment, squeeze your buttocks and slowly raise a bent leg to ceiling.
  • The movement should be controlled and only move as far as you can control spinal stability.
  • Return to the start position.
  • Do not allow head to hang and make sure that you are keeping your navel drawn in throughout the movement.
