HANDS TO KNEES
This is a suitable abdominal exercise for beginners. Remember, if you're a beginner you should read the notes on correct abdominal technique.
Rest your hands on your thighs, and slowly
slide the hands along your leg, up towards your knees.
Control the movement on the way down, remembering
the slower you work, the harder the exercise.
Keep your chin off your chest, and if your
neck aches, support your head with one hand.
Concentrate on controlled smaller movements, aiming to feel your abs contracting rather than using momentum to force into the movement.
