Johnathan Smith, AAAI/ISMA-certified personal trainer and founder of iRobotFit, recommended double leg lifts because they're "simple, effective, and can be done anywhere," he told POPSUGAR. This move targets your abdominal muscles in particular.
- Lay flat on the ground with your legs extended straight up toward the ceiling. Place your hands underneath the back of your head.
- For added stability, place your arms out to your side, allowing your palms to grip the floor.
- Pressing your lower back into the ground, slowly lower both legs down toward the floor.
- Slowly raise them back up. If this is too difficult, lower them as much as you can, or lower one leg at a time.
- This counts as one rep.
