Abdominal Pendulum Instructions
- Place a mat on the floor and lie down on your back.
- Put your arms out at right angles to your body with your palms on the floor.
- Keep your legs straight and your legs off the floor until they're at a right angle to the floor. This is the start of the exercise.
- Rotating only at the hips, slowly lower your feet to one as far as possible without losing stability.
- Do not pause, and raise your feet up and across to the opposite side.
- This is one rep. Repeat for desired reps.
Abdominal Pendulum Tips
- This exercise can also be done with a dumbbell held between the feet for some added intensity.
- For maximum benefit do the exercise slowly and lower feet as far as possible.
