This exercise at once tones and stretches. It’s perfect for those with office jobs or who drive/sit a lot.
How to
Activate your abs and your glutes with a hip raise, then extend one leg out – hold for 5 seconds, return to start. Repeat the same side or swap and do 15 reps each side.
Tips
- Eyes to the sky/ceiling, chin off your chest.
- Hands under your head instead of ‘pushing’ you up as can often happen when they are by your sides.
