How to perform

  1. 1

    Lie face down on the floor, with your arms extended out to your side, palms pressed to the floor. This will be your starting position.

  2. 2

    To begin, flex one knee and bring that leg across the back of your body, attempting to touch it to the ground near the opposite hand.

  3. 3

    Promptly return the leg to the starting postion, and quickly repeat with the other leg. Continue alternating for 10-20 repetitions.

Important tips

  • Drive through your whole foot, not just your toes.

  • Keep your knees tracking over your toes.

  • An honest range of motion beats a heavier load.
