Tips

  1. Do not move your legs at all throughout the set.
  2. Make this exercise harder by holding weight in your hands or holding the reach for a count of two.

Instructions

  1. All you need for the floor toe reach is a mat to lay on. Lay on the mat on your back with your arms by your side and legs straight out in front of you.
  2. Put one hand over the top of the other and point your hands straight up towards the ceiling.
  3. Now, keeping your legs straight and feet together, bring your legs up so they are also pointing to the ceiling. This is the start of the exercise.
  4. Now reach up as far as you can with your hands towards your toes. Use your abs to elevate your shoulders off the floor.
  5. Pause, and slowly lower back to starting position.
  6. Repeat for desired reps.
