Sliding Leg Curl is a bodyweight exercise that targets your lower body – specifically glutes and hamstrings. It also engages the core effectively.

Step 1
Lie on your back with your knees slightly bent. Place your feet on a pair of sliding discs.
Step 2
Slide your feet across the floor towards your body while lifting your hips. Form a straight line from knees to shoulders. Pause and then slowly return your legs to the starting position.

Sliding Leg Curl targets Abs, Glutes, Hamstrings, Lower Body as seen below.

Try not to arch your back at the top of the movement. Focus on maintaining a neutral spine throughout the exercise.
Try not to put your weight on the front of your foot. Push up with your heel during the exercise.
Keep your hips elevated throughout the exercise. Aim for a straight line between your shoulders and knees.
