"In this clip, we're going to be doing the pendulum swing with the exercuff. So you want to come down slowly on the mat. If you don't already have your excercuffs on, you might want to put them on at this point. Okay. Come down to the prone position on the mat. There are a number of options. You can have your palms down on the mat or you can come down on to your forearms. Okay. Now we are going to take our rear leg, extend pass the opposite leg and swing it across. So you are going to be touching down on two different points. Touching down passed the opposite leg and then across. You can make this fast or slow. You just want to watch your back and keep your back nice and stable so you don't provide any additional stress. You are going to feel this all through the gluts, the quads, the hams, the calves and you are also going to feel in in the obliques, low back and the hip flexors. It's very important to have these cuffs nice and secure so you have a nice smooth movement."
