The Hanging Abdominal Raise With Lateral Flexion, Demonstrated By Dr. John Petrozzi DC, Spotted By Dr. James Stoxen DC
Today we are at the park in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with Dr. John Petrozzi who is Anthony Fields’, from the Wiggles, doctor in Australia.
He is my good friend or as they say ‘my mate’.
I encourage you to go outside with your children and do some exercise with them. Instead of sitting on a bench on the sidelines why not play with them and try some of these exercises in ‘The Getting Fit At The Playground Series’.
Dr. Petrozzi is going to show you how to do a Hanging Ab Routine which is an Abdominal Raise With Lateral Flexion.
Watch Anthony Field, from the Wiggles, on the flying trapeze backstage doing hanging abdominal exercises in the video below:
You can do this exercise on various apparatuses, such as a bar or rings at the playground.
This exercise works the transverse abdominis muscles and the lateral Obliques.
Instructions:
- First reach up and grab a hold of the rings or bar.
- Slowly bend your knees to 90 degrees.
- Then lift your pelvis so your knees are above your waist and your thighs are parallel to the ground.
- Laterally flex your torso to the left and then back to the right approximately 30 degrees. repeat
It’s very important that you take in deep breaths
Please note that this is an advanced exercise. If you cannot do this at first then you can work up to it.
Once again I encourage you to take a break and get outside and do some exercises with your kids.
