Throughout this routine, be sure to keep the best form possible so the moves can work their magic, and try to flow from one exercise to the next without resting. Keep your core pulled in and torso lifted without letting your bottom ribs collapse or sink into the mat. If you are a beginner, bring your top arm in front of you on the floor to help balance and keep yourself from rolling forward or backward in side-lying position. If you are intermediate, place your top arm long over your top leg. More advanced exercisers can lace both hands behind the head (not pulling on the neck) with elbows open wide.
