Arm and leg extension exercise

The arm and leg extension exercise is a terrific core exercise. To do this exercise, lie on the ground, face down.  I would recommend using a mat so that you don’t get too dirty. Legs should be about a shoulder width apart, left arm folded under the head, and right arm extended forward with thumb up. The  movement in this exercise is to further extend and lift the arm with a thumb up while lifting the opposite leg. Hold that for five seconds and then release. Next, repeat seven more times.  Next, switch sides so that the left arm is extended forward with thumb up and right leg is ready to lift in the air.
