Show yourself and especially your core some love with this exercise. Keeping your feet and back off the ground will keep your core under tension for the entire set.
- Begin sitting, balanced just behind your hip bones, and lean back slightly to lift your feet off the floor; gently pull your knees to your chest.
- Exhale, pull your belly button to your spine, and lean back slightly as you open your arms to the sides and straighten your legs.
- Inhale and return to the starting position to complete one rep.
Do three sets of 12 reps.
