  1. 1 Begin in a plank position with your forearms resting on a Swiss ball, directly under your shoulders.
  2. 2 Extend your legs straight behind you, feet hip-width apart, balancing on your toes, forming a straight line from head to heels.
  3. 3 Engage your core and glutes, then slowly lift one leg a few inches off the floor, keeping your hips level and stable.
  4. 4 Hold this position, maintaining a straight body line and preventing your hips from sagging or twisting.
  5. 5 Gently lower your leg back to the starting position with control.
  6. 6 Repeat the movement by lifting the other leg.
