Hip Raises
Lie down on your back with your legs in the air vertically. Place your arms out to the side for support and balance.
Your aim is to get your hips up of the ground by using your stomach muscles. It is not to get your hips as high as you can or to swing your legs as much as possible to help.
Start the movement by drawing your stomach in and up. This should start a slight rolling movement of your hips which if your stomach is strong enough should bring your hips off the ground. You are only looking to get your hips in the air by a couple of inches. If you are not strong enough then just raise your hips as high as you can. Once you have raised your hips hold it there for a second and return to the starting position by relaxing your stomach muscles.
