The hollow body position is painful for many lower back injury progressions. This partial baby get up is a great lateralization. It also has a functional advantage for unilateral applications such as prepping for kettlebell or dumbbell snatches. Give it a try. Try holding 1 minute on/ 30 seconds off in each direction for 3 rounds. Make sure to keep those feet off of the ground. Balance your weight on your trochanter and only use the support of the elbow and scapula as much as is necessary.
