The Bridge

This exercise is excellent for strengthening the core muscle groups: the glutes, abdominals and back.

Lie flat on your back. Bend your knees at a 90-degree angle, feet flat on floor. Tighten abs. Raise buttocks off floor, keeping abs tight and squeezing the muscles in you bum. Shoulder to knees should be in straight line. Hold for a count of five. Slowly lower buttocks to floor. Repeat five times.

When you've mastered this lengthen your count and increase your repetitions.

ENJOY!!
