  2. Hold a dumbbell between your feet, keeping legs extended downwards.
  3. Contract your glutes and lower back to lift your legs upward as far as comfortable.
  4. Pause at the top, squeezing the glutes, then slowly lower the legs back down.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining control throughout.
