Technique
Setup
Lie flat on your back with hands under your glutes for support. Lift your head and shoulders slightly off the floor.
Movement
Lift your legs 6-12 inches off the floor. Kick them up and down in a small, rapid, alternating motion.
Form Tip
Keep your lower back pressed firmly into the floor throughout. This is essential for protecting the spine and engaging the abs.
Increase Difficulty
Lift your hands off the floor or hold a hollow body position while kicking.
Decrease Difficulty
Lift your legs higher off the floor to reduce the lever length and strain on the lower back.
