PERFORMING EXERCISEIn one smooth movement get up by contracting your glutes and hamstrings with your weight on your heels. When you stand upright squeeze your glutes and push your hip forward, then lower yourself back down.
Push your chest out and pull your shoulders back throughout the exercise. Keep your back as straight as possible and your core tight. Do not pull your head back into your neck but keep your spine in one straight line. Pull with the force of your glutes and hamstrings and not your back.
