How to improve your abs 

EXERCISE 

Straight leg raise 

The straight leg raise is a simple exercise that targets the upper and lower abs. 

The straight leg raise is performed by laying on you back with your legs straight out in front of you. While your hands are crossed on your chest, lift your legs upward toward the ceiling. Then return to the starting position. 

The exercise should be done 3 sets of either (10, 15, 20) reps. You can increase the amount of sets or reps. 

Another alternative is to set a time limit to complete as many as possible (30 sec, 1 min). Work toward using the correct form and increasing your number each time. 

Be sure to use the correct form to protect your neck and back. Beginners could start with 2 sets of 10 reps.
