doing breathing exercises, expiration / breathing out with lifted legs

Instructions:

Step 1: Lie on your back keeping your legs on the mat too, such that your heels touch the floor.

Step 2: Contract your core, inhale and slowly lift both your legs together such that they point towards the ceiling. Bring your legs down slowly and exhale.

Repeat the exercise while keeping your hands on the mat, next to your thighs throughout the set. Continue this for a minute.

Important Tip: Never let yourself arch your back. That makes the exercise easy, but in the long run, it will end up hurting your shoulder and lower back.
