Lying legs raise (Flat straight leg raises, Full leg raises)
Skill Tree
Technique
- Lie on your back with your legs straight and your arms along your body, palms on the ground.
- Press your lower back into the ground and lift your straight legs until they are vertical.
- Lower them slowly until they almost touch the ground, then lift them again.
Form tips
- Keep your lower back in contact with the ground the whole time: if it lifts, stop lowering before that point.
- Bending the knees slightly makes it easier.
