It's a great exercise for beginners because it's easy to modify and can be done without any equipment. Benefits include: Strengthens the core muscles, including the rectus abdominis (abs), transverse abdominis (deep core muscles), and obliques (side abs) Lengthens the spine and improves flexibility Improves balance and coordination Tips: If you have trouble rolling up all the way, you can modify the exercise by bending your knees or keeping your feet flat on the floor. You can also use a Pilates resistance band to help you roll up. Simply loop the band around your feet and hold the ends in your hands. As you roll up, pull the band towards you to assist with the movement. Be sure to keep your core engaged throughout the entire exercise. This will help to protect your lower back and ensure that you're getting the most out of the movement. 😍BECOME AN INSIDER TODAY: https://daniellemcdonald.myflodesk.com/youtube I'm so grateful you spent your precious time with me today.
