Description:

1.) Start off by laying on your back with your arms and feet extended out with an exercise held in between your feet.

2.) Once in position slowly bring your upper and lower body together at the same time, squeezing with your core, and once reaching the top of the movement transfer the ball from your feet to your hands.

3.) After the transfer slowly move back to the original starting position with the ball still kept in your hands extended out and your legs kept straight out.

4.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
