Exercise Description

Quadruped Leg Raise is an excellent exercise for so many reasons; that strengthens the entire core region and glutes and hamstrings.

Exercise Instructions

  • Step 1

    Get on all fours with your knees bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep your back straight so that your body forms a line from head to hips. Keep your hands on the floor. This is your starting position.
  • Step 2

    Relax your core so that your lower back and stomach are in a natural position. Without allowing the position of the lower back to change, lift one leg with a bent knee until the thigh is in line with the body. Hold for a moment, and then return to the starting position.
