Alternate Names: "Roman Chair" Leg Raise, Vertical Hip Raise.
STEP 1
Step up onto the "chair" and place your forearms on the pads. Grab the handles and step off the foot pads. While hanging, stabilize yourself by allowing your shoulders to depress down.
STEP 2
Bring your knees up a little past 90 degrees.
STEP 3
Slowly lower your legs back down and keep your back firmly pressed against the back support.
STEP 4
Return to starting position.
Special Notes
If you have problems with your shoulders this is not the exercise for you. If you want to increase the level of difficulty, try doing this exercise with ankle weights.
