The Scissors
About
This move works your lower abs and thighs, boosting core stability and leg flexibility.
How to The Scissors
Starting Position
1. Lie on your back and extend both legs straight up towards the ceiling.
2. Place both hands on the floor beside your hips with your palms facing down.
Proper Form
1. Keep one leg pointing towards the ceiling and slowly lower the other leg towards the floor.
2. Cross the leg positions while maintaining tension in the lower abdomen and repeat.
3. Lower the legs only within the range where the lower back does not lift.
Breathing Technique
Breathe in and out naturally while crossing your legs, and maintain a steady rhythm.
Precautions
1. Please tighten your abdomen so that your lower back does not lift off the floor.
2. If you feel discomfort in your back or neck, immediately reduce the range of motion or stop.
3. Focus on maintaining abdominal tension rather than speed.
