A great exercise for the rectus abdominis, hip flexors, and quadriceps.  It’s as simple as 1, 2, 3 but also deceivingly difficult.

    I love these pictures because they scream “MUSCLES” to me! Look at those two fit, strong bodies! Amazing.

    Jill looks like she could do a double somersault over her partner and cartwheel back into her starting position :)

    i’m pretty sure the reason why jill is demoing this exercise here is because she is the only one who can do it with no hands! she is incredible!!!

    I tried this with Virginia holding my feet. I kept grabbing the top of her head to pull myself up. She didn’t like that. I am not fond of this exercise, but can appreciate its benefits. :)

    Oh no Roxanne, you must not grab the head. Not a good idea.
