The lying bench leg raise builds strong hip flexors and core stability. It targets deep muscles that help with posture and athletic performance.
1. Lie flat on a bench with your legs hanging off the end and grip the sides for stability. 2. Keep your legs straight and slowly raise them up until they're parallel to the floor during this lying bench leg raise. 3. Pause briefly at the top position while squeezing your hip flexors and core muscles tight. 4. Lower your legs back down slowly with control, stopping just before your feet touch the ground. 5. Repeat the lying bench leg raise movement for your desired reps, keeping tension throughout the entire range of motion.
• Keep your lower back pressed against the bench throughout the entire lying bench leg raise movement • Move slowly and controlled - don't swing your legs up using momentum • Stop just short of your feet touching the ground to maintain constant tension on the muscles • Focus on the lying bench leg raise by squeezing your hip flexors at the top of each rep
• Arching your back off the bench, which can strain your lower spine during lying bench leg raise • Using momentum to swing legs up instead of controlled muscle contraction • Letting feet touch the ground between reps, which releases tension and makes the lying bench leg raise less effective
