専門家のコメント

This is a great exercise to flow from into ab work in a mat class.

I highly recommend working on the Pilates roll up first before trying a neck pull. I cue breath a lot in this exercise to improve abdominal support and for a smooth connection of movements in this exercise, flowing from one position to the next.
