If you want to strengthen your abdominal muscles and improve your body awareness, especially around your pelvis, you should try this exercise.
Before doing this exercise, you should note a common mistake we see people make when performing it for the first time.
❌ Raising the pelvis by pressing the knees to the mat (hip flexion) and not by contracting the abdominal muscles.
With this compensation, we perform hip flexion, which lifts the pelvis from the mat and also tilts it forward.
This increases lordosis and stretches the abdominal muscles instead of contracting them.
✔️ Here is a step-by-step instruction on how to do this exercise correctly:
Lie prone position, spine flexed, and pelvis in a posterior tilt.
Raise your pelvis and thorax from the mat and try to hold a bridge position for several seconds.
