Lying Leg raise
Equipment
Keeping your legs straight, slowly lift them all the way up to the ceiling until your buttocks come off the floor slightly.
Pause for a moment at the top of the movement to engage your abdominal muscles.
Slowly lower your legs back down to the starting position, ensuring you don't let your feet touch the ground before the next repetition.
Repeat this motion for the desired amount of repetitions, making sure to maintain control and precision throughout the exercise.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movements: Avoid the mistake of rushing through the exercise. Slow, controlled movements are key to effectively engaging your abdominal muscles. Raise your legs until they're perpendicular to the floor, then slowly lower them back down. Don't let your legs touch the floor between reps to keep tension on your abs. Avoid Arching Your Back: A common mistake is to arch the lower back off the floor as you raise your legs. This not only reduces the effectiveness of the exercise but could also lead to lower back strain. To avoid this, make sure to press your lower back into the floor throughout the exercise. Engage Your Core: Remember to engage your core muscles throughout the entire movement. This will help you maintain control
