• Slowly lift the body so that the bent elbow of his left hand to touch the thigh
• Fixing the housing, stay in a bent position for a second or two, then slowly lower to the floor
• Do not forget to breathe properly How to breathe correctly - modern and traditional techniques : While lifting the body breathe out and, falling back, take a deep breath
• After a few twists repeated, change the position and perform the same actions in the prone position is not on the right and on the left side
