Description

Lie on your stomach with an elastic band between your ankles. Keeping your abs engaged, slowly lift one leg off the ground by bending the knee and bringing your heel towards your hips. The closer you bring your heel to your glutes, the more difficult the exercise will be. Do not let the foot holding the band on the ground move! Slowly return to the starting position, but not completely, in order to maintain slight tension in the band, then repeat the movement.
