Bridge - Lie on your back with knees bent, feet on the floor, hip width apart. Beginning with a pelvic tilt (tucking the hips), bring the spine hip and butt off the floor leaving  the shoulders on the floor. (The heels should be directly under the knees at the highest point.) Hold for a few counts, then slowly lower spine squeezing the butt so it is the last thing to touch the ground.

Hi Anita Jo, That's excellent. That's called interval training. Like running a sprint and jogging back to the starting line, then sprint again. Earl
