Flutter Kicks

Description:

Flutter Kicks are exercises designed to develop core, legs, and hip flexor strength.  As the name suggests, this exercise involves kicking of the legs, but done while in a hollow hold position.  Increase the difficulty by speeding up the tempo of the kicks.  Scale by performing standard hollow holds.

Process:

• lie on back with arms extended overhead
• legs should be together and core engaged
• lift hands and feet few inches off the floor to get into a hollow position
• once in a hollow position, kick legs up and down in alternating fashion while maintaining the hollow position
