Leg Raises, Bent Knee

Type: Abs
Using a Roman Chair to perform bent knee leg raises increases the load on the lower abdominals and hip flexors. It also hits the obliques and the front and outer thighs. A less challenging option to this exercise is to perform it sitting on the floor. To increase the challenge, wear ankle weights.
Level :  Equipment : Yes
