Tubing Exercises: Double Leg Lifts

Video Transcript

"This tubing exercise is called the double leg lift. We're going to focus on squeezing the inner thighs, locking down that core to get a great lower body exercise. So come on down to your mat. Take the tubing and place it right underneath the arch of your feet. Put your heels together and your toes are out like a V, and then squeeze your inner thighs together. Lift your head and shoulders up, pull your shoulder blades back and down, draw that navel into your spine. Lower the legs down and really squeeze those glutes and lift up. Lower down and lift up. Inhale at the top and then exhale as you lower your legs down. Inhale as you lift, exhale as you lower. Now you want to remain in control throughout this entire exercise. If you feel like your body is falling over, tighten up on those glutes a little bit more, and draw that belly in so that you're not really straining in your neck. Perform about 20 of these and then rest when you're finished. That is your double leg lift."
