2ndLie as flat as possible with your stomach pulled in backwards onto a gym mat. Bring your feet closer to your buttocks. Now bend your trunk with your hands behind your head. Keep the movement flowing, not jerky. As you exhale, your upper body goes up; when you inhale, it goes down again. Repeat this exercise eight times slowly and a further eight times at a faster pace. Then relax briefly and repeat the whole process a total of four times.
