How to do the Knee Pull ins


If you have a history of lower back problems, consider replacing the knee pull-in exercise with another exercise.

  1. Begin by sitting on the mat with your legs stretched out in front of you. 

  2. Place your arms at your sides with your palms on the mat to help with balance.

  3. Lean backward to the point at which you can feel your abdominals working to hold you in the position, and this is the starting position. 

  4. Pull your knees in towards your chest and exhale while drawing your chest toward your thighs.

  5. Hold the position for a few seconds, squeezing your lower abs.

  6. Pause momentarily at the top of the movement and lower yourself back to the starting position.

  7. Repeat for 15 repetitions
