Hanging Leg Raise

Core · Bodyweight

How to do it

Hanging from the bar with active shoulders. Raise straight legs to horizontal or higher, **curling the pelvis at the top** so it is not just hip flexion. Lower under control without picking up a swing. You feel the whole abdomen, especially low down. The classic mistake is using the swing: if you are swinging, do the bent-knee version.
