Hanging Knee Tucks

Dallas Personal Trainer - A very old exercise that is phenomenal for developing tight abs, however it is frequently performed incorrectly, preventing the practitioner from receiving the maximum benefit.  If you have a good quality Dallas Personal Trainer, he/she should know the correct form and be able to teach it to you so that you can receive maximum benefit from it.

Hang from a chin-up bar, hanging straps (as pictured), or a knee raise/dip tower. Let your legs hang straight down below you. Pull your abs in tightly and then pull your knees up as high as possible, smoothly and under control. Attempt to tuck your knees all the way up and into your chest by contracting your abs as tightly as possible. When you get strong enough to do more knee tucks than is prescribed by your workout program, start holding a small dumbbell between your feet as you do them. As you get stronger, continue to increase the weight just as you would on any other exercise.

As always, we do not recommend performing any exercise without the supervision of a highly qualified Dallas personal trainer.  This exercise description is for informational purposes only.  Consult your doctor before attempting any workout program or attempting this exercise or any other exercise on this website.
