- Lean back slightly and lift your legs off the ground, keeping them straight.
- Simultaneously, lift your upper body off the ground and reach your arms towards your legs.
- Hold this position for a few seconds, then slowly lower your upper body and legs back down to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Sets and reps
Start with 3 sets of 10–15 reps, resting 45–60 seconds. When every set feels easy, add reps, slow the lowering phase or move to a harder variation.
Muscles worked
The main muscle is the abs. The hip flexors work as secondary muscles. See all ab exercises or every bodyweight exercise.
