Exercise Directory: Exercise #83: Large Flutter Kicks

This exercise will focus on your lower abdominal muscle.

STEP #1: Lie down on your back on the floor [facing the ceiling].

STEP #2: Extend your legs straight out.

STEP #3: Draw your belly button in toward your spine.

​STEP #4: Press your lower back against the floor. This is to help eliminate your back from arching.

STEP #5: Lift your left leg off the floor as high as it will go without switching your lower body position.

STEP #6: Next ... grab the top leg with both of your hands ... and lift your upper body toward your leg ... and crunch twice.

STEP #7: Slowly lower your left leg back so that it is hovering right above the floor. As you lower your left leg, slowly lift your right leg off the floor.

STEP #8: Grab the top leg with both of your hands ... and lift your upper body toward your leg ... and crunch twice.

​​STEP #9: Continue to repeat this movement until you feel your lower abdominals start to fatigue.

​STEP #10: REST.

​STEP #11: REPEAT.
