Lying Leg Raise

How to

Bodyweight
  1. 1 Lie flat, hands under the hips, legs straight.
  2. 2 Raise the legs to vertical.
  3. 3 Lower slowly without arching the back.

Tips

  • Bend the knees slightly if the lower back lifts.
  • Lower only as far as the back stays flat.
  • Lift the hips a little at the top to work the abs more.

Common mistakes

  • Arching the lower back as the legs come down.
  • Dropping the legs fast.
  • Swinging the legs up.
