How to Strengthen Core Muscles with Cork Screw Exercises

In a pilates workout, the corkscrew exercise is an intense workout for your abdominal muscles. It also helps you to practice smooth and controlled motion during an intense physical exercise.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Lie flat on your back, and extend your legs straight to the ceiling, your feet flat and your heels together. Keep your arms fully extended and palms-down at your side, or behind your head.

2. Exhale, and slowly rotate your legs to the left. Keeping your legs together, circle back to the starting position in step 1. Circle your legs closer to the floor for a more intense exercise.

3. Inhale. Exhale, and repeat in the opposite direction. Keep your pelvis stable, with your back flat against the floor. Maintain control of your legs at all times, shrinking the circle if necessary.

4. Repeat for 5 to 10 repetitions for each side, depending on your fitness level.
