 Exercise 8 of 11  Routine by Michelle M. Freeman. Bicycle Twist - 20 reps each side
Lie faceup with arms extended overhead and hold the ends of the towel. Point your toes and extend your right leg parallel to the floor (but not touching) as you bend your left knee and press the inside of your left foot on your right inner thigh.Inhale, and as you exhale, lift both legs (maintaining their position) as you lift your head and shoulders off the mat and twist your right shoulder across to your left knee. Lower your head and legs back to start position. That’s one rep. Repeat 10 times in a row to the left, and then 10 times to the right.
Note: As you lift your head and turn your shoulder into your knee, make sure your arms stay extended by your ears (don’t let the towel end up in front of you). If it’s too challenging to lower your legs so much, keep them closer to the ceiling as you lower, making sure your lower back doesn’t arch off the ground.
