Exercise Instructions:
Lie flat on your back on an exercise mat with your legs extended and your arms by your sides, palms facing down.
Engage your core by drawing your belly button towards your spine and pressing your lower back into the mat.
Bend your knees and lift your legs, bringing your knees towards your chest.
Use your lower abs to lift your hips off the ground, curling your pelvis towards your ribcage.
Hold the top position for 3 seconds, squeezing your lower abs.
Slowly lower your hips back to the starting position, keeping your legs elevated and maintaining tension in your core.
Repeat for the desired number of reps.

Keep your movements slow and controlled to maximize muscle engagement.
Focus on using your lower abs to lift your hips, not momentum.
