Hanging Leg Raise

The Hanging Leg Raise is a classic anterior core exercise that is easy on the spine and that you can perform nearly anywhere. When people ask me, "why can't we do crunches?" I usually throw a bunch of these at them. No, there's no such thing as fat loss, but if you can bang these out easily there will be a six-pack waiting for you when you lose those last few pounds via caloric deficit. These are pretty self explanatory, so I got Zuzana to demonstrate. Bonus points if this happens.
