How to do boat knee extensions

    Sit on the floor in a bent-knee boat position with feet raised, arms forward and back long.

    Extend both knees only as far as you can keep your torso still.

  3. 2

    Keep your torso at the same angle.

  4. 3

    Bend the knees slowly to return.

Take care. Use a comfortable range. Stop if you feel pain, dizziness, or loss of control.
