Hollow Body L2

How To

This is a progression of Hollow Body L1, but instead of knees bent, your legs are straight and feet slightly lifted off the floor.

Continue to breathe and make sure not to allow any space to develop between your low back and the floor. If this is not happening, go back and focus on Hollow Body L1.

Tips

Tip 1

Press your lower back into the floor by drawing your belly button down and in. Lift your shoulders off the floor by elongating your spine and actively contracting your abs. Lower your legs to the lowest point where you still can keep your back in the ground.

Tip 2

Focus on breathing from your diaphragm. Don’t hold your breath. Keep your head in a neutral position so you are not straining your neck.

Tip 3

The second your back starts arching, stop or move to an easier variation with legs or hands closer to your core.
