I learned a cool new move in Pilates last week.
You're laying with your back in imprint, legs in tabletop, arms above your head, parallel to the ground. Extend both legs to a 45 degree angle in the air. Inhale and extend your arms vertically above your head, and nod your head. As you exhale, lower forward and extend your arms parallel to the ground, and in the same movement slowly roll yourself up with your abs. Keep your legs steady at 45 degrees.
Basically you end up in a "V" shape with your torso and legs both at 45 degrees. Hold. Then slowly lower your torso back down in a controlled movement with your abs, your arms raising back up and then down above your head.
It's a combination of The Hundred and the Roll-Up.
This requires a lot of ab strength, imo.
Enjoy.
