Description

Lie on your back with your heels on a bench and your arms crossed over your chest. Push through both heels to lift your hips until your knees, hips, and shoulders are aligned. Once at the top, lift the heel of the non-working leg, then slowly lower back down controlling the movement with only the working leg. When your hips touch the ground, place the second heel back on the bench and repeat.
