The straight leg dead bug exercise builds core stability and teaches your abs to stay tight while your limbs move. It's perfect for fixing lower back pain and building a rock-solid foundation.
1. Lie on your back with arms straight up toward the ceiling, legs bent at 90 degrees 2. Press your lower back into the floor and pull your belly button toward your spine 3. Slowly extend your right arm overhead while straightening your left leg, keeping both just above the ground 4. Hold for 2 seconds, then return to starting position with control during your straight leg dead bug 5. Switch sides and repeat the straight leg dead bug movement, keeping your core tight throughout
• Keep your lower back pressed into the floor throughout the entire straight leg dead bug movement • Move slowly and with control - this isn't a race, it's about precision • Don't let your straight leg dead bug limbs touch the ground at the bottom • Breathe steadily and don't hold your breath during the exercise
• Letting your lower back arch off the floor, which defeats the purpose of the straight leg dead bug • Moving too fast and losing control of the movement • Extending limbs too far down and losing tension in your straight leg dead bug form
