  5. Lower your leg back down to the starting position and repeat with the other leg.

Plank Leg Raise Static Tips

  1. Start by getting into a high plank position, with your hands directly under your shoulders and your body in a straight line.
  2. Engage your core muscles by squeezing your abs and glutes throughout the exercise.
  3. Keep your neck in a neutral position, looking down at the floor to avoid straining your neck and upper back.
  4. As you raise one leg off the ground, focus on using your abdominal muscles to lift the leg, rather than relying on momentum.
  5. Avoid arching your lower back by keeping your hips level and your core tight.
  6. Hold the leg raise for a few seconds at the top, feeling the burn in your abs, before slowly lowering it back down.
  7. Repeat the exercise on the other leg, alternating between legs for a set number of repetitions or time.
