They're a good exercise for abs that elite bodybuilders always include in their routine. PLease let your thread die now :)
Lucas Ward
They're THE best concentric ab exercise bar none. If you want to train your abs you need to be doing them. The only other thing you might want is something rotational and something isometric.
Brody Howard
Don't have the data but nothing hits the abs harder than hanging leg raises
Levi Rivera
As others have noted, it is probably the king of ab exercises.
Ethan Nguyen
Scientists conclude that leg raises are an ideal workout for abs
Jaxson Richardson
it's also good since it decompresses your spine
Henry Jones
Jaxon Morales
Trainers hate him because he discovered this one trick
Angel Morales
Yeah but I feel my hip flexors more than my abs after hanging leg raises why is that?
Jason Thompson
Hanging leg raises gave me cancer in my abs
Zachary Watson
They suck for building muscle, but are great for strength
Kevin Lewis
worst broscience post ever

I use them as a meme workout to just fix my lower back pain after legs
t. arachnoid cyst wrapped around lower spine.
Daniel Miller
You're not gonna get RIPPED abs from only leg raises. I mostly only do them to rotate my sacrum and decompress my spine.
Ayden Brown
my core legit exploded when I started doing them, but do them properly, show the gym your ass.
Noah Davis
They're good for training your abs, but the main reason why you should be doing them is that they stretch your hip flexors too and if you squat/deadlift a lot or have been sedentary (which I assume to be the case based upon you asking this question) you almost certainly have tight hip flexors
Owen Hernandez
poor form, start with hanging knee raises and try to bring your knees up to your chin focusing on contracting your abs specifically
Jacob Green
>for me
Jaxson Cooper
Is it the same as lying leg raises or nah?
Gavin James
I do them at the end of EVERY workout
core work can never harm, you have additional grip work due to the hanging and it decompresses your spine after heavier loads (squats, deads, presses). What's not to love
Jaxson Lewis
Hanging leg raises are more challenging and more work. Lying will give you a good workout on your abs but hanging is even better.
Gavin Johnson
They are best done against a wall as that prevents cheating and use of momentum.
Nicholas Moore
but then you won't decompress your spine (assuming it's one of those seats, and not a wall ladder or however you call that) Hanging free is better for overall usefulness, but sure if you want to target your abs only do them against a wall
Dylan Myers
Just found out you're supposed to maintain the posterior pelvic tilt while doing them. So that's what i've been doing wrong.
David Gray
Or maybe stop ego lifting and pause between reps. Stop when your form goes to shit. Supplement with an easier movement.
Christopher Rivera
Because the exercise is actual called a hip flex and its supposef to work you ilacis and psoas major . Abbs are just the synergist muscle group.
Cooper Walker
Newbie in Noobgains territory here, all of my sickest ab gains came from intense hanging routines.
Brayden Reed
>all these niggers saying abs
I thought it focused on the adonis belt
Evan Wood
Do them slower
Mason Scott
Hanging leg raises are excellent for your serratus, abodminals, and obliques.
Gabriel Powell
Mate. Fuck off. This is first hand experience. I built my abs doing cable crunches and the oblique twist machine. Leg raises barely had any impact on giving my abdominals hypertrophy.
