How to Do Perfect Leg Raises (Complete Guide)

Perfect Leg Raises Technique

Leg raises are one of the most effective exercises for targeting the lower abdominal muscles and building core strength. This movement challenges your ability to control hip flexion while maintaining spinal stability. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures proper form and maximum abdominal engagement throughout the movement.

Step-by-Step Form Guide

Starting Position:Lie flat on your back with arms at sides for stability, legs extended straight
Core Engagement:Press lower back into the ground and engage deep abdominal muscles
Leg Lift:Slowly raise legs until they're perpendicular to the ground (90-degree angle)
Controlled Lowering:Lower legs back down with control, stopping just before they touch ground

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Allowing lower back to arch off the ground
Using momentum instead of controlled movement
Bending knees excessively during the movement
Dropping legs too quickly on the descent
Holding breath instead of breathing rhythmically
