Sets: 2-3

Reps: 12 (6 each side)

• Lie on your back and place the pilates ball under your low back.

• Place your knees/hips at a 90/90 position.

• Inhale and expand the ribcage to prep for the movement.

• Exhale, draw in your core as you lower one leg down to tap the floor and back up.

• Inhale back at the 90/90 position.

• Exhale, draw in and switch sides.

• The ball will add a bit of instability, making it more challenging to hold the trunk still. Make sure to continue focusing on drawing the abs in vs. pushing out with the extra challenge.

Modifications:

• Press into the floor with the palms for additional lat support.

• Decrease the range of motion of the tap - work up to full.
