Alternating Straight-Leg Raise

Step 1

Lie on your back on a yoga mat. Gently draw your ribs to your hips to engage your core. Keeping your feet together, slowly raise your legs off the floor until they form a 90-degree angle with your hips. This is your starting position.

Step 2

Inhale. Exhale. While keeping your legs extended, slowly lower your right leg until it almost touches the floor, ensuring your spine remains in a neutral position.

Step 3

Inhale. Raise your right leg to return to the starting position.

Step 4

Exhale. While keeping your legs extended, slowly lower your left leg until it almost touches the floor, ensuring your spine remains in a neutral position.

Step 5

Inhale. Raise your left leg to return to the starting position. Continue alternating between right and left for the specified number of repetitions.
