Instructions
1. Sit on the edge of a flat bench or a stable platform with your legs extended in front of you.
2. Place your hands beside you for support, either next to your hips or slightly behind you on the bench.
3. Lean back slightly, engaging your core to maintain balance and stabilize your upper body.
4. Keeping your legs straight, raise your feet off the floor to form a roughly 45-degree angle with your torso.
5. Hold the raised position for a brief moment, ensuring your core is engaged and your legs remain as straight as possible.
6. Slowly lower your legs back down to the starting position without letting your feet touch the floor between repetitions.
7. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions. If including isometric holds, maintain the raised leg position for a set duration before lowering.
Control the movement and avoid any swinging or momentum, focusing on using the strength of your core and hip flexors to lift your legs.
