• Lie down on the floor with your arms at your sides and feet together.
• Elevate your legs/feet off the ground and slightly raise your upper back off the ground to properly activate your core musculature.  
• Low back is pinned against the floor.
• Begin alternating your legs and raising them to roughly 45-degrees. This is a fluid, rhythmic motion.
• Point your toes to your face to properly engage the your lower-half musculature.
• Your feet and legs never touch the floor during the set.

• Keep your neck in a neutral position throughout the exercise.  
• Keep the tempo controlled. Don't rush through this exercise, it will negate the purpose.
