## Technique
1. Lying on your back, legs together, knees only slightly bent, heels hovering above the floor.
2. Smoothly raise your legs until your feet are directly above your pelvis and pause at the top.
3. Slowly lower the feet until the heels are just above the floor.
4. Do not change the angle in the knees during the exercise.
## Form tips
* Keep your back flat against the floor and do not let it arch; arching your back means you need to use an easier variation, or spend some time stretching your hip flexors (with hip extension stretches).
