Starting Position
- lay down with the front evenly onto the ground or a fitness mat
- the arms and legs are stretched, arms above your head
- alternatively you can hold the hands to the temples
- the lumbar spine area is strained by lifting up arms and legs at the same time
Correct Execution
- now slowly let the arms and legs simultaneously lift off the ground
- keep arms and legs stretched as much as possible
- the range of motion is quite small
- try to hold this position for a moment
- if this is too difficult for you, you can swing the arms and legs up and down
- repeat the movement several times
tip for the workout
- alternatively you can only lift the arms or the legs, it makes the lower back exercise easier
