220/365 Calling Captain Pike for Abdominal Strength

Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,

My dear friend Adam has requested suggestions for more intense abdominal exercises so that he wouldn't have to do the same ones over and over again. One of my suggestions was a pike.

This is the land version of a pike dive or a spin on Navasana from Yoga.
1. Start out laying on floor arms extended above and legs out straight.
2. Using those strong abs, bring your arms and legs together forming a V.
3. Hold it for a moment, then come back until your arms and legs are just hovering above the floor; your weight is in your sit bones.
4. Repeat and feel the burn.

In health,

Lauren
