Tone those obliques with…SIDE-LYING LEG RAISES!
Setup: Lie on your left side and rest your head on a pillow. Extend your bottom arm underneath the pillow, palm facing up, and place your top arm in front of your body, palm lightly pressing into the floor. Extend your legs long, gluing them together, and stack your hips on top of each other. Bring your legs slightly forward in front of your hips.
- Exhale and, pulling your belly in, lift both of your legs off the floor, keeping them squeezing together.
- Inhale and lower your legs until they are hovering right above the floor. Do 10 repetitions, then switch sides and repeat.
Advanced: Challenge your balance by extending your top arm toward the ceiling.
