What it is

- Exhale as you lift your torso towards your toes.
- Maintain a slight bend in your knees as you reach.
- Focus on using your abdominals, not momentum, to lift.
- Control the descent back to the starting position.
- Extend your arms straight towards your feet.
How to track your progress
