Lay flat on your back, arms by your sides, palms facing down. Bend your knees and lift them off the ground. Using your lower abdominal muscles, roll your knees towards your chest, lifting your hips off the floor. Control the movement, avoiding any jerking motions.

Common Mistakes

Using momentum instead of controlled muscle engagement. Allowing the lower back to arch excessively.
