The Clam w/head support
Start on all fours with your face facing the floor. Contract your abdomen and lower back for stability. Stretch one arm and the opposite leg to extend of your body. Repeat the movement with opposite arm and leg.
Lie on your back with your feet on the floor and your hands out to the side. Place your palms downward and keep your legs together. Allow your legs to fall to the side in a controlled motion, using your stomach muscles to lift them up again while keeping your lower back pressed down on the mat.
Look straight forward during the entire exercise. The weight bar should hang in extended arms, as close to the body as possible, but without impeding your movement or technique. Breathe in on your way down, hold your breath at the lowest part of the movement and breathe out on your way back up. If the exercise is only performed with an elevating phase (olympic lift), breath in before stabilisation and take-off. Arch in the lumbar part of the back and try to hold the arch during the whole lift. Start with straight legs in a position as wide as your shoulders, and with the centre of gravity right through your body. Distribute most of your weight to the back of your feet.
