7 Best Hanging Leg/Knee Raise Alternatives & Substitutes

Image
The hanging leg raise is one of the most intense ab exercises that you can crank out at the gym to tone your abs. The only problem is that they call for a pull-up bar, so you probably won’t be able to do them anywhere but at the gym. So, we’re going to go over some of the best hanging leg raise alternatives that’ll hit your lower abs without needing a pull-up bar. 1. Lying Leg-hip Raise The lying leg-hip raise is the best alternative to the hanging leg raise because it works on the same exact movement.

Here are 5 amazing Convict Conditioning results including transformations. Trying to figure out which exercise program to try is never easy because there are so many things to consider. Not only do you have to worry about how much it will cost and what kind of time and effort you are going to have to put into it to get results, there are always doubts (at least for me) if the program will actually work. No two bodies are the same, and just because that amazing fitness model looks great on Instagram while promoting the latest exercise trend, it doesn’t mean that it will do the same for me. Even though there is no way to really know for sure if a program is right for you until you dive in and try it, I always find inspiration from before and after pics of someone who has tried a program I am interested in. Fitness models are great and all, and kudos to them for making money on social media by hitting the gym and working out all of the time while taking pics. But, for me to know i...
