How to do it
Lying on your back, contract your abs so that your upper back is lifted off the ground.
Bend your legs, bringing your knees to your chest.
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 your scapulae are protracted, while also contracting your back muscles to depress them.
