    Reverse Crunches <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Lay on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor and arms out to the side. Slowly lift your feet off the floor with your knees at a 90 degree bend. Exhale and raise your hips off the mat, rolling your spine to bring your knees towards your head (without breaking that 90 degree angle). Use your arms and hands for balance. After you “crunch”, reverse the motion to bring your feet to the floor and repeat. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lower your body until your thigh is parallel with the floor and hold for a brief second. Reverse to standing position and repeat with the other leg. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
