leg raises
Supine abdominal workout
Leg raises are an abdominal exercise performed by lying flat and lifting the legs while keeping them straight, typically raising them to vertical before lowering slowly.
The movement targets the lower abdominal muscles and hip flexors.
Variations include hanging leg raises, where you hang from a bar, and lying leg raises on a bench or floor.
I do three sets of leg raises every morning.
