Rope Hanging Leg Raises – Combining Core Work and Grip Training

In the video above you will see osteopath Heath Williams of Principle Four Osteopathy demonstrate a hanging leg raise from the ropes.  Hanging from the ropes is an added challenge due to the increased effort required by ones upper limbs to hold ones weight against gravity.  Add to this a leg raise and you have a great upper body and core exercise to add to your everyday training routine.
