Start by lying flat on your back. Gently press your spine into the ground and lift your legs off the ground, bending them so you form a 90-degree angle with your shins parallel to the ground and your thighs perpendicular. Make sure your knees are stacked over your hips and your toes are pointed. You can hold either hold this starting position, or straighten your legs to make the exercise more challenging.
Exhale as you tuck your chin into your chest and draw your ribs to your hips, elevating your head, shoulders, and upper back off the mat. Be sure to keep your back flat on the mat. Extend your arms by your sides with your palms facing down, ensuring your arms are parallel to the floor.
Inhale, and elevate your arms slightly, then lower your arms slightly in a pulsing movement. Perform five pulses.
Exhale, and pulse your arms five times.
Repeat for 10 reps, completing 100 pulses total.
