Windshield wipers: how to do it

1 of 3

Arms out, legs at right angles

  1. Starting position

    Lie on your back with your arms out and raise bent legs so your hips and knees form right angles.

  2. The movement

    Lower your knees together to one side, return them over your hips and lower them to the other side.

Most common mistake

Don't lift the opposite shoulder off the floor, shorten the movement and keep both shoulders down.
