Plank with Leg Raises

Plank with leg raises | Anatomical Analysis

This exercise is intended to strengthen the core muscles, with an emphasis on the oblique abdominals and hip flexors of the supported leg.

Breaking leg contact adds to the difficulty level of the exercise.

The external oblique is dominant on the side of the lifted leg, and the internal oblique is dominant on the side of the supporting leg.

All the muscles on the model stabilize the body.
We chose to color the rectus abdominis and the obliques in red because they are the dominant stabilizers in this exercise. But this exercise is not intended only for the abdominals but for all the core muscles.
