What muscles will burn: abs and hip flexors
- From Extended Locust, come to sit on your tush with your legs extended in front of you.
- Bend your knees into the chest, finding balance on the sitting bones with the spine long.
- Straighten your legs as much as you can without rounding the spine. If your back starts to hunch, bend the knees so the shins are parallel with the floor. Your legs don't need to be straight — the action of keeping your spine long and drawing your belly in is what works your abs here.
- Hold for five complete breaths with the chest lifted.
