2. Very slowly, close them again.

3. Repeat 8x, taking a full 5-6 seconds for each movement.

NOTE: It is extremely important that you keep your back flat on the floor and your navel
pulled in toward your spine the entire time you do the following exercise. If you find you
cannot yet do this without your back rising up from the floor, do the Scarlett O'Hara's and The
Frog for about a month before trying this one again.
