Exercise Descriptions

Strength

Low abdominal breathing

  • Lie on your back with the knees bent and feet on the floor, about hip width apart.
  • Place one hand on your chest and one hand on your stomach, and breathe in through the stomach, without letting the chest rise. Push the hand on the belly up as you pull air in.
  • Release the air by allowing the stomach to fall back toward the spine using gravity, then expel all the air by pulling the belly button toward the spine (called ‘drawing in’).

Low abdominal Hold (no video)

  • Lie on your back with the knees bent and feet on the floor, about hip width apart.
  • Complete 3 complete breaths, using the ‘drawing in’ for low abdominal breathing.
  • On the last breath when all the air is expelled, hold the low abdominals drawn inward, securing the low spine with the back flush to the floor. You will feel the gluts engage to fully stabilize the hips. 
  • Hold this position for designated number of seconds.

Low Abdominal Leg Lifts

  • Lie on your back with your arms by the sides, knees bent and the feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart. Place a towel under the low back, slightly rolled, just above the waist.
  • Hold the low abdominals engaged by pushing the towel into the floor, then lift one foot ~2 inches off the ground, keeping the knee bent at 90 degrees.
  • Reengage the low abdominals as you slowly return the foot to the ground, without rocking sideways.
  • Continue alternating legs, holding the hips as still as possible and breathing normally.
  • Keep the low abdominals ‘drawn in’ the belly toward the spine, gluts engaged as you lift and lower the leg.

Low Abdominal Leg Extensions on Floor

  • Lie on your back with your arms by the sides, knees bent and the feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart. Place a towel under the low back, slightly rolled, just above the waist.
  • Hold the low abdominals engaged by pushing the towel into the floor, then lift one foot off the floor and extend the leg with the quad, pulling the toe up toward the shin. Keep the knees in line.
  • Reengage the low abdominals as you slowly return the foot to the ground, without rocking sideways.
  • Continue alternating extending the legs, holding the hips as still as possible and breathing normally.
  • Keep the low abdominals ‘drawn in’ the belly toward the spine, gluts engaged as you lift and lower the leg.

Bridge Hold

  • Start lying on your back with your arms by the sides, knees bent and the feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart. 
  • Hold the low abdominals engaged by pushing the towel into the floor, then push through the heels and lift the hips in line with the shoulders and knees.
  • Hold this position for the designated number of seconds, keeping the low abdominals ‘drawn in’ the belly toward the spine, gluts engaged as you lift and lower the leg.
