How to do it
Lie on your back.
Contract your abs so that your upper back lifts off the ground.
Keep both legs straight, together, and lifted off the ground.
Extend your arms while protracting your scapulae, so that your upper back is rounded.
For perfect technique, check that you have no lumbar curvature and that the scapulae are protracted, while simultaneously engaging your back muscles to depress them.
