Exercise Profile

Airpad Plank Leg Raise Overview

The airpad plank leg raise workout is designed to target the abs and obliques using the airpad.

The airpad is used to create an unstable surface, engaging the core muscles for stability during the leg raises.

By incorporating the airpad, this workout intensifies the focus on the targeted muscles while minimizing strain on secondary muscles.

Airpad Plank Leg Raise Instructions

  1. Place the airpad on the floor and position yourself on your hands and knees, with your hands directly under your shoulders and your knees directly under your hips.
  2. Extend your legs straight behind you, resting your toes on the airpad.
  3. Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine.
  4. Keeping your body in a straight line from head to toe, lift one leg off the airpad, raising it as high as you can while maintaining control.
  5. Lower your leg back down to the airpad, then repeat the leg raise with the opposite leg.
  6. Continue alternating leg raises for the desired number of repetitions.

Airpad Plank Leg Raise Tips

  1. Start by positioning yourself in a high plank position with your hands directly under your shoulders and your feet on the airpad.
  2. Engage your core by pulling your belly button towards your spine and squeezing your glutes.
  3. Keeping your body in a straight line, lift one leg off the airpad while maintaining stability with your other leg.
  4. As you raise your leg, focus on squeezing your abs and obliques to maintain balance and control.
