Bodyweight Lying Legs Curl
Face down on the floor with no load, curl both heels up toward the seat together and lower them slowly.
How to do it
Setup
Face down on the floor, forehead on the stacked hands, legs long and together.
Steps
- Curl both heels up until the shins are vertical or past it.
- Squeeze the backs of the thighs at the top.
- Lower the legs slowly to the floor.
Common mistakes
Hips lifting off the floor: press them down; the knees bend, the hips stay. Kicking the legs up: curl them smoothly. Dropping the legs: lower them as slowly as they rose.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale extending.
