OK, We’ve been building up to this for weeks. We’ve shown you several ways to increase strength within the core muscles. If you feel any discomfort through your back or hips, stop. You MUST keep the lower back stabilized while you perform this exercise.
Lumbar Stabilization – Leg lifts
Difficulty: Moderate
(Consult your chiropractor before starting this or any other exercise.)
Start: Lie on back with arms out to sides. Keeping legs straight, bend hips to 90 degrees so bottom of feet are pointing up toward
ceiling.
Exercise: Keeping spine steady, lower both legs slowly toward
floor. As soon as you feel lower back starting to arch, stop. Pause
for 1-2 counts, then bring legs back to starting position. Perform
5-10 repetitions.
