STAYING FIT FOR LIFE
By: Mattie Schuler
Great Abdominal Exercises:
4. Hanging leg raises
5 reps
Start by hanging from a pullup bar with your feet off
the floor. Contract your abs and tuck your hips
underneath you. Raise your legs up toward the bar
without swinging, using only your core strength. As
your legs come up, relax your glutes and tense your
abs pushing into your armpits and lift them as high as
you can. Lower slowly to keep core muscles engaged
for max benefits. Repeat. "Think about pulling the bar
to your legs instead of lifting your legs to the bar,"
says Neupert.
