dead bugs
Expired creepy crawlies
Dead bugs is an exercise performed lying face-up with arms and legs raised, then alternately extending opposite limbs toward the floor while keeping the lower back pressed down.
The name comes from the position's resemblance to an overturned insect.
It strengthens the core, particularly the deep stabilizing muscles: My physical therapist has me doing dead bugs every morning.
