exercises prohibitions precautions



Lie down on your back. Bend your knees up over your chest. Gradually raise your body, support your lower back with the palms of your hands and rest your weight on your shoulders. Slowly raise your legs and straighten them above you, so your body, from shoulders to feet would form a straight line. The chin must be in contact with your chest, feet together and your vision directed to your toes.

Reverse the process to ease your body back to the floor.
