Leg Raise

Lower abs

About

It's the best workout to build lower abs. When your back does not stay in contact with the floor and hurting, put your hands under your hip.

Coach's Tips

Lie down on the floor and bring your legs together, please position your arms by your side.

Don't lift your feet too far back, just enough so your waist doesn't lift off the ground.

How to Leg Raise

Starting Position

1. Please lie down flat on the floor.

2. Please use both hands to support yourself on the floor so your body doesn't shake.

Proper Form

1. Slightly bend your knees and lift your legs so that they are vertical to the floor.

2. Slowly return to the starting position.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when you raise your legs and inhale when you lower them.

Precautions

If your back hurts, you can place your hands under your hips to prevent your back from arching.
