    Slide your feet along the floor toward your body, simultaneously raising your hips. Form a straight line from your knees to your shoulders. Pause, then slowly slide your legs back to the starting position.

Trainer’s Tips

  • Avoid overarching your back at the top of the movement. Focus on maintaining a neutral spine throughout the exercise.
  • Avoid letting your weight shift onto your forefoot. Push through your heel during the exercise.
  • Keep your hips up throughout the entire exercise. Aim for a straight line between your shoulders and knees.
