Lie on your back, then bring your knees and your chest together at the same time.
Tuck-up
How to do it
- Knees and chest meet in the middle.
- Hug your knees at the top, then stretch back out long.
- Nothing at all
- Enough floor to lie down on, arms out.
- A rug or a mat, and nothing sharp where you put your hands.
Watch out for this
Make it fit you
The right version is the hardest one you can still do properly. That is not a kindness, it is how this works.
Easier
- Bring one knee up at a time.
Harder
- Sit-up
- Keep your legs straight as they come up.
