The dead bug exercise builds core stability and teaches your abs to work while your arms and legs move. It's perfect for fixing lower back pain and building real functional strength.
1. Lie on your back with arms straight up toward the ceiling and knees bent at 90 degrees 2. Press your lower back flat into the floor and pull your belly button toward your spine 3. Slowly lower your right arm overhead while extending your left leg straight, keeping your heel just above the ground 4. Hold for 2 seconds, then return to starting position with control during the dead bug movement 5. Repeat on the opposite side, alternating arms and legs for the dead bug exercise
• Keep your lower back glued to the floor throughout the entire dead bug movement - no arching allowed • Move slowly and with control - this isn't a race, it's about building stability • Breathe steadily and don't hold your breath during the dead bug exercise • Stop immediately if you feel your back arch or lift off the ground
• Letting your lower back arch off the floor ruins the whole point of the dead bug exercise • Moving too fast instead of focusing on slow, controlled movements that build real strength • Not engaging your core before you start moving - you need tension first in the dead bug movement
