- Engage your abs, keep your lower back against the floor, and lift your heels a couple of inches off the floor.
- Take a breath and raise your knees to your chest as you bend them on the way up.
- Hold the top position for a moment and lower your legs to the starting position as you extend your knees without letting your feet rest on the floor. Exhale on the way back.
