How to perform a Dead Bug with TurnFit Personal Trainers and guest Kennedy Hindley
This exercise will help strengthen and stabilize your core. By keeping your lower back on the ground you are minimizing pressure on the back. It is also great for realigning your pelvis to help with posture.
Steps
1. Lie on your back on a flat surface with your head comfortably elevated.
2. Lift your bent legs until your knees are in line with your hips. Lift your arms until they are at a right angle with the floor with your hands over your shoulders.
3. Hold this position while breathing in slowly through your nose so that your lower abdomen moves out while your chest remains still.
4. As you exhale, maintain your abdomen position.
5. Repeat.
NOTE: Keep your back flat on the ground. There will be a tendency to arch the back as you lift your legs. Let your abdominal do the work, rather than your back.
