How to do it

Steps :

1.) Begin by sitting up straight on a mat in a butterfly position, touching the soles of your feet together; or you can sit on an exercise ball with both feet flat on the floor in front of you.

2.) Position your arms at your sides as this will be your starting position.

3.) Slowly reach up with your hands, interlocking your fingers above your head until you feel a stretch in your abdominal muscles.

4.) Hold this position for 15 to 30 seconds and then return back to the start.

5.) Repeat for as many reps as desired.
