Health Benefits of Exercising on Bed

Exercising on the bed is very beneficial for health. For example, it tightens our legs, abs and shoulders. Most of the bed’s surface is not fully plain but it helps to stabilize our muscles. The unstable bed surface is useful for building the core strength, improving balance, toning certain areas of the body like abs and glutes etc. Some of the exercises that can be done on the bed are Supine Leg Marches, Reverse Crunches, Straight Leg Lifts, Modified Handstand Push-Ups and others. These all will help you to tone and tighten your buttocks, shoulders and abs.
