Yesterday, we talked about the Ab Roll Up as a great flat stomach exercise. The Ab Roll Up is a prerequisite to the Teaser. I may have mentioned this before, but Pilates works the abdominals from the inside out! Don’t get me wrong, you will still see the external results of your hard work.
The Teaser too, is another flat stomach exercise! The Teaser starts out laying flat, legs
extended and arms up over head and abdominals engaged. Inhale, tuck your chin into your chest. Exhale, lift your head neck and shoulders up off the mat as you lift both legs off the mat. An easier option would be lifting just one leg off the mat, keeping the other leg bent and foot flat on the mat. Your body would be creating a V, with arms and both legs lifted. Inhale, at the top, then exhale and lower your legs and your upper body back down to the mat. Repeat, and keep momentum out of it, isolating only the abs.
