  1. Lie facedown with your arms extended forward and legs straight back, squeezed together.
  2. Inhale and pull your abs in toward your spine and exhale as you lift your right arm and left leg simultaneously, about 30 centimetres off the floor. Inhale there lengthening from your extended hand through your spine and out through your extended toes. Then exhale as you lift your left arm and right leg and lower your right arm and left leg. Inhale and hold. Exhale and switch. Continue alternating (as if you’re swimming) for five breaths on each side. Do three sets total, resting in between.
