This exercise is a diffiicult one if you don’t dp it correctly, correct form is important.
I want people to learn to use what they have where they are. With a bit of imagination this drill can be done almost anywhere, there are plenty of trees. Not only will this drill help all of your pressing movements (overhead, bench, bent press) but your deadlift, squat and even pull-ups will increase. This movement really is for the hard-core guys.
Firstly let me start out by saying I love Janda sit-ups but there is a problem that I face with these. I cannot do them due to the simple fact of not owning an Ab Pavelizer and not having training partner. I know some of you out there also share this problem and you will have to revert to other exercises. This is fair enough but please do not follow the bodybuilding crowd and start doing CRUNCHES. I would like to introduce you to the Hanging Leg Raise.
First of all I will give you a few reasons as to why you should do Hanging Leg Raises. With a little imagination you can do them anywhere. The Hanging Leg Raise works all the muscles of the midsection and even your Lats. You only need a pull-up bar and Pull-up’s are part of a staple diet (think Tactical Strength Challenge).
