Hanging Straight Leg Raise

1. 1 - Grab a pull-up bar with an overhand grip slightly wider than shoulder-width and hang freely with your arms fully extended.
2. 2 - Engage your core and squeeze your legs together, keeping them straight throughout the movement.
3. 3 - Exhale and raise your legs upward in a controlled motion until they are parallel to the floor or as high as your flexibility allows, without swinging.
4. 4 - Hold briefly at the top, focusing on the contraction in your core and hip flexors.
5. 5 - Slowly lower your legs back to the starting position in a controlled manner, avoiding any swinging momentum.
6. 6 - Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining full body tension throughout each rep.
