Abdominal bridging
Video Transcript
Abdominal bridging is a simple and effective way to tighten your tummy muscles. Lying on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the ground, arms to your sides; take a nice deep breath in, and raise your hips up, so that they’re in line between your shoulders and your knees. Squeeze your tummy muscles nice and tight, and then relax.
1. Lying on your back with your knees bent, place your feet flat on the ground with your arms resting at your sides.
2. Exhale as you lift your hips off the ground until they are in line with your shoulders and knees, creating a bridge.
3. Hold for a couple of seconds, squeezing your tummy muscles. Lower to the ground and repeat.
