Lying Leg Raise: how to do it and form tips

Targets the lower abs with no equipment. Lift straight legs from the floor to vertical and back.

Form tips

  1. Press your lower back firmly into the floor — never let it arch.
  2. Lift to ~90°, lower until heels hover 2–3 inches off the ground.
  3. Bend knees slightly if hamstrings limit your range.
