Hanging Leg raises.

[tspot180]

Going to start this exercise as i am trying to progress on my reverse kegels

Totally agree with you OP ,

my reverse Kegels became so much easier & targeted with a stronger core. I don't personally do hanging leg raises but I do leg raises when I'm on the dip bar following with a set of dips.

I'll also do weighted leg raises when I'm on the decline bench gripping a dumbell of 10-15lbs with my feet. These core exercises make Kegels & Reverse Kegels so much easier.

How many sets of How many reps ? Do you think weihted haging knee raises on the dip Machine would have the same results ?

That's up to you ,
Just watch some good YouTube videos of core exercises & come up with your recipe. Nobody's business but your own.

Hanging leg raises & Dip leg raises takes some serious upper body strength . You don't just go to the gym & start off trying that if you haven't trained for it. Those core exercises take practice unless you're already pretty strong in your upper body & core area.

I already am, i can put 4KG on each leg, thats why im asking precisely what you do. How many sets of how many reps ?

Hanging leg raises have helped me loads. It turns out my tense pelvic floor was compensating for my weak transverse abdominis. Get a bar, learn how to do the exercise properly, using only your core. I'm sure it can help you.

Did it help you to sit? to walk? to bench? to have sex? to edge? to kegel?

Sorry but you should specify that for it to have a good argument. Thanks for the info though.

We're in a forum for Premature Ejaculation. That context fills in his missing space in the argument.


That said, it makes sense that hanging leg raises would help immensely. I think that the increased range of motion from these exercises will lengthen the abs and decompress the lower spine. Re: Nocturnalfight, the rep and set scheme isn't that important so much as the range of motion - ensure that you're going all the way down past parallel with your feet to the floor, then curling up your knees as if you're mooning someone in front of you. Ex:

Rep scheme should be approx 75% of your max x 3 sets.

I have been doing hanging leg raises almost every day, didn't notice any improvement.

how long? Do you have a tight pelvic floor?

Usually 3 rounds of 10. I'm pretty sure I have it, I'm doing yoga for it and have lots of IKs.
