Abstract: A pillow has a lower surface with forward and rearward edges spaced by a length of about 9 inches coupled by perpendicular lateral side edges spaced by a width and an arcuate upper surface with a forward section formed with a radius of curvature of about 5 inches and a rearward section formed with a radius of curvature of about 15 inches. The pillow has a maximum height between the upper and lower surfaces of about 2.5 inches. The upper surface has a high point closer to the forward edge than the rearward edge. Between 40 and 45 percent of the length of the pillow is forward of the high point and 55 and 60 percent of the length of the pillow is rearward of the high point. Similarly configured planar side surfaces of the pillow have a curved upper edge and a lower edge co-extensive with the side edges of the lower surface. The method of exercising uses the pillow as a fulcrum to support a user while lifting one portion of the user's body.
