  1. Lie flat on the floor with your lower back pressed to the ground (pull your navel in, to target your deep abs.)

  3. Straighten you right leg out about 45-degree angle to the ground while turning your upper body to the left, bringing your right elbow toward the left knee. (Make sure your rib cage Is moving and not just your elbows.)
  4. Now switch sides and do the same motion on the other side.
