Coach Peabody, counting

Lie on your back, then bring your knees and your chest together at the same time.

Tuck-up

Move your own body · ages 5 to 14 · Counted in reps · 🤫 Quiet

How to do it

  1. Knees and chest meet in the middle.
  2. 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

Lift your chest towards your knees as well — both ends come up.
Only the knees move.

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.
