Instructions:

Step 1: Lay flat on the floor in a supine position and extend your arms to the sides. The palms should be kept facing the floor. The arms should be kept in this position throughout the duration of the exercise.

Step 2: Raise your legs about half a feet with a slight bend in the knees.

Step 3: Lift one leg to make a 45-degree angle with the horizontal. Ensure that the toes point towards the ceiling.

Step 4: Hold for a moment and bring the raised leg back to the initial position and work with the other leg.

Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tip: You could add ankle weights while performing this exercise for variable resistance.
