These three exercises will help you to a better and controlled compression (bringing your legs towards your chest), better coordination and will help you maintain your core strength!
1. Leg lifts - isometric hold
- press your extended leg against your hands, don't move, just press.
- keep upper body engaged and off the floor.
- keep your deep core engaged
2. Leg Lift Crunches
Same position as before, just a different action: Legs stay still, torso moves. Don't pull on the leg, lift from your core!
3. Pike Invert - Floot Edition
- Shoulderblades & arms stay glued to the floor
- power comes from core & quads, go slow and controlled!
