Exercise: Knee Raise

Here is one for the abs. Knee raises can be done in different positions. I suggest trying them all. By working the muscles in different ways, you are going to stress them more and cause them to grow. Don’t forget that you can do both sides at once, or alternate. Here are a few examples:

Hanging with straps

To get into this position with less potential injury, place a chair or stepping apparatus behind under you.

Hanging from a bar


Incline Bench
For this one just go to the decline bench that you would normal do crunches on. Instead of wrapping your knees around the grips on the high end, lay on your back and hold the with your hands. You are now shoulder up. Raise your knees and tri to touch your chest.
