Seated Knee Up
Whole absAbout
It's a very simple abs workout that you can do anywhere, such as chairs and floors. In order to target the lower abdomen, increase the range of movement of the legs and workout!
How to Seated Knee Up
Starting Position
1. Sit at the edge of the bench and extend your legs forward.
2. Lean your upper body back naturally and hold onto the bench with both hands to keep your body steady.
Proper Form
1. Lift your lower body so that your knees and chest come closer together.
2. Allow your upper body to naturally lean forward so that your core can contract.
3. Slowly return to the starting position.
Breathing Technique
Exhale when you raise your legs, and inhale when you lower them.
Precautions
If it's too difficult, try proceeding with your knees bent.
From the Community
hip flexors are typically relatively weak for most of us because we sit so much so they're in a contracted state. This exercises opposes that, so it'll feel tight in the short term but eventually the hips equalize. This also has the benefit of improving your posture over time
