Flutter Kicks
A 200-characters-or-less explanation of the exercise.
Instructions
- Lie on your back with your hands underneath your glutes for support.
- Keep your legs straight and lift them about 6 inches off the ground.
- Kick your legs up and down in a fluttering motion, alternating between the left and right leg.
- Keep your core engaged and your lower back pressed against the floor during the exercise.
- Perform the exercise for a set duration or number of repetitions.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Allowing your lower back to arch off the ground, which can cause strain.
- Not engaging the core enough, reducing the effectiveness of the exercise.
- Kicking the legs too high, which diminishes the intensity on the core muscles.
