This exercise is a must for anyone who has had babies, C-sections, Abdominal surgeries, desk jobs, to help stimulate the proper firing patterns. This should be done prior to using kettlebells, running, or any form of exercise, as part of a warm up for optimal performance. Tightening up that area will be easier with adding this exercise to your arsenal. Find Elise Badone at http://soulfit.net/ for more Muscle Activation Technique exercises.

Thanks for this> I am a stuntman that has difficulty activating my core after a back injury. I will definitely try this before every training session! regards Dan Hirst

lauren was the one who was messing up the movement and thats was caused the confusion!

I'm wondering the same thing, or does it really make a difference?

Does the pelvis go down first or the legs in the video Elise says pelvis first all the way through and then says the legs first on the last one ? Thanks
