How to perform

  1. 1

    Lie down on your back and pull both knees up to your chest.

  2. 2

    Hold your arms under the knees, not over (that would put to much pressure on your knee joints).

  3. 3

    Slowly pull the knees toward your shoulders. This also stretches your buttocks muscles.

Important tips

  • Initiate every pull from your shoulder blades, not your hands.

  • Keep your torso still — no swinging for extra reps.

  • Pause briefly at full contraction before returning.
