The reverse crunch with a leg drop involves lifting your legs and hips off the floor while maintaining control. Here's how to perform the exercise:
- Lie flat on your back with your arms at your sides or lightly behind your head for support.
- Bring your knees towards your chest, keeping them bent at a 90-degree angle.
- Straighten your legs and lift your hips up off the floor, engaging your abdominal muscles. Exhale during this lifting phase.
- Slowly lower your legs back down towards the starting position, inhaling as you lower. Maintain control throughout the movement to avoid arching your back.
- Repeat the movement, focusing on using your core muscles to lift and lower your legs and hips.
