Mainly exercise the upper abdominal muscles. Slowly raise your upper body, draw in your abdomen, and bring your head as close to your knees as possible. When you lean back and return, your back touches the board surface. For those who have basic exercise skills, it is best to do it on an inclined board or an abdominal muscle rack. You can fully lean back to increase the difficulty of abdominal contraction.

4. Touch your toes alternately
Lie flat with your feet straight and your hands on both sides of your body. Lift your body, lift your left leg at the same time, and touch your left toe with your right hand; return to the original position, lift your upper body again, lift your right leg at the same time, and touch your right toe with your left hand. Repeat several times.
