Instructions
Begin by lying on one side, ensuring your body is in a straight line with one hand resting on the floor for stability and the other hand behind your head.
Stack your legs on top of each other and slightly lean back to balance on your glute rather than directly on your hip bone.
Engage your core and keep your lower back straight.
Slowly lift both legs off the ground while keeping them straight. The movement should be driven by the contraction of your obliques and lower abs.
Once your legs reach a comfortable height where you feel a strong contraction in the side of your abdominals, pause briefly.
Controlled and slowly lower your legs back down without letting them touch the floor to keep tension on the muscles.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
After completing the set, switch to your other side and repeat the exercise to ensure balanced muscle development.
Remember to keep your movements controlled and avoid using momentum to lift your legs. Breathe out as you lift your legs and inhale as you lower them back down. Adjust the number of repetitions and sets according to your fitness level.
