How to perform

To perform the Lower Ab Cantilever exercise, follow these steps:

1. Begin by lying on your back with your arms stretched out by your sides and your legs extended straight up towards the ceiling.
2. Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine.
3. Slowly lower your legs towards the floor, keeping them straight and without touching the ground.
4. Hold this position for a few seconds, ensuring that your lower back stays pressed into the mat.
5. Slowly raise your legs back up to the starting position.
6. Repeat for a set number of reps, trying to maintain control and balance throughout the movement.

To increase the difficulty of this exercise, you can try adding ankle weights or holding a small weight between your feet. Make sure to focus on proper form and avoid using momentum to lift your legs.
