How to do it

Steps :

1.) Start off by laying on your back with your knees bent up, placing your palms facing out near your shoulders.

2.) Putting the weight of your body on your heels, peel your back off of the floor and lift up through the hips.

3.) As your hips are raised up off of the ground, put the pressure on the palms of your hands and straighten the arms to lift into the full position.

4.) Once at this position press your inner thighs closer together and push your groin up towards the ceiling.

5.) Hold this position for a few seconds and return back to the starting position.
