Bosu Ball Core Exercises: Prone Bent-Knee Lift

Video Transcript

"This functional core exercise using the Bosu is the prone bent-knee leg lift. Simply come right on over your Bosu on the dome area. Position your hips to where you're in the center. Place your forearms on the mat. Lift your legs up and point through those toes. Bend your knees at 90 degrees and you want to think about lengthening out through the crown of your head so that you can create a nice, long spine. From here, from your hips, lift up squeezing your glutes, using your lower back muscles and really lengthening those toes all the way to the ceiling and then lower down. The breathing here is exhale up, inhale down, exhale up, inhale down. Think about keeping this movement nice and controlled and you're really going to feel that burn in your glutes. Your lower back is working. This is a great core stabilization type of exercise. You can perform this exercise anywhere between 30 seconds to a minute, and when you're finished simply just come right on out of it. That is your prone bent-knee leg lift using the Bosu."
