Curl Up With Hands Under the Lower Back

Description

Lie down on the floor, one leg bent with the knee at 90° and the other leg relaxed on the floor. Place your hands under your lumbar area for support, with your elbows resting on the floor. Slightly lift your elbows, as well as your head and shoulder blades off the floor. Focus on the rotation of the thoracic spine, visualizing your head and neck as a fixed block integrated with your thoracic spine, avoiding any cervical movement, whether it be a forward or retraction of the chin. Aim to activate the rectus abdominis muscle and the obliques without causing any movement of the spine.
