Lying Heel Touch

Lying Heel Touch Instructions

• Lie down on the floor with your knees bent at 45-degrees and your arms at your side. 
• Your low back is pinned on the floor with your core properly engaged. 
• Your neck is in a neutral position looking towards the sky. 
• Raise your upper back and arms off the ground slightly. 
• Take a breath out then "curl" your abdominals up.
• Imagine curling the bottom of your sternum towards your hips.
• Your abs should feel as if they are being sucked inward.
• Keeping this tight core position, take your right hand to your right heel. 
• Feel the contraction in your obliques. 
• Keep your low back pinned against the floor. 
• Rhythmically transition from side to side. 

*Tips*

• Keep your legs passive throughout the movement. 
• Don't reach with your arms, control the movement with your obliques.
