How to do flutter kick

Coach's Tips

Elevate your legs and move them up and down. The quicker and longer you maintain the movement, the more effectively you target your core muscles!

Start Position

1. Lie on your back on a mat with your arms at your sides, palms facing down, and legs stretched out.

2. Lift your head and shoulders off the ground, directing your chin toward your chest.

Proper Form

1. Initiate the exercise by lifting your legs off the ground, raising them to a 45-degree angle.

2. Move your legs up and down in a scissor-like pattern while ensuring your lower back stays pressed against the floor.

3. Perform the leg movements in a controlled and rhythmic fashion, as though you are swimming.

Breathing Technique

1. Inhale as your legs rise; exhale as you lower them.

2. Maintain a consistent breathing pattern throughout the exercise.

Precautions

1. Ensure your core remains engaged, and your lower back stays pressed into the floor.

2. If you experience any discomfort in your neck or lower back, cease the exercise immediately and seek medical advice.
