Exercise Description

The decline leg raise with hip thrust builds strong abs and hip flexors. It targets your lower abs harder than regular leg raises while adding hip strength.

How To

1. Lie back on a decline bench and grip the top pad behind your head for support. 2. Start with legs straight and lowered toward the floor, keeping a slight bend in your knees. 3. Raise your legs up until they're perpendicular to the floor, engaging your abs throughout the decline leg raise with hip thrust. 4. At the top, thrust your hips up by lifting your lower back off the bench for extra ab contraction. 5. Lower your legs slowly back to starting position and repeat the decline leg raise with hip thrust movement.

Form Tips

• Keep your lower back pressed against the bench during the decline leg raise with hip thrust lowering phase. • Control the movement down - don't let gravity drop your legs. • Focus on lifting with your abs, not momentum from swinging legs. • The decline leg raise with hip thrust hip thrust should be a small, controlled movement at the top.

Common Mistakes

• Swinging legs up too fast instead of using controlled ab strength during decline leg raise with hip thrust. • Letting legs drop too low, which puts stress on your lower back. • Rushing through the decline leg raise with hip thrust without pausing at the top for maximum contraction.
