Lie on bench or mat, supine positioned, flex legs and hips. Slightly Lift head and thoracic spine as weel as legs. Let heels and fingertips point towards ceiling. Slowly lift upper body by flexing waist as far as you can. With your fingertips try to reach your toes, exhale. Return inhaling and repeat. Also try to lift your hips a little, which will increase the impact in your lower abs. Keep some space between your chin and upper body.
