Leg Raise
Muscles worked: Abdominals, Hips, Obliques
Equipment needed: None
Difficulty: 6/10 – Fairly Hard
How to
1. Lay flat on your back with your hands to your side (or behind your head to make it easier). Your legs should be together and straight.
2. Lift both of your legs at the same time to about 45 degrees off the floor. It’s important to keep your legs straight.
3. Return your legs to the starting position and repeat.
Make it Harder
Lift your legs off the ground about 2 inches and use that as your starting position so that your legs never touch the floor throughout your set.
Variations
Individual Leg Raises – You can lift one leg at a time instead of lifting both legs.
