If your Instagram is private we can't see ya so make sure we can:) Now, this one is one of our favorites. Yes, your abs are working but, the stretch is beyond wonderful. To feel the opposition of each leg to create that is key. Really pull the leg in and straight to the chest and the long leg reach as if you could touch a wall that is 20 feet ahead of you. Stay curled up as you switch and pull each leg. Exhale all that air out as you really pull and inhale as those legs switch. If your hip flexors are tight this one is fantastic!! Let's see yours! Key: don't let those knees veer off to the shoulders, straight in and pull! Music by Leon Redbone song Frosty the Snowman
