How can I get the grip strengh to hang on to the bar when doing these? I can only do about 3-4 before my grip gives out. I obviously don't have the straps :/

[darrensurrey]

@punktheman Keep practising. Your grip will improve. If you have a bar at home, just hang there (no raises) everyday until you cannot hold any longer and drop to your feet. Side-effect - nice forearms. :D

[TheRGpro]

i always get blisters on my hands when i do this exercise, how can i fix that?

[5graffitiartist5]

@TheRGpro

@TheRGpro gloves

[padis]

is it ok to do this with a neutral grip? Pronated grip kinda hurts my shoulders when I do this..

[pierrekaul]

i have sub you, please sub back

[adu1991]

1:03 wwe wrestler John Morrison does this exact same exercise :)

[jakelovebomb]

@adu1991 don't base things off of wwe.

[adu1991]

@jakelovebomb on youtube I can say whatever I want. If you don't like it, go somewhere else.

I'm not kidding.

[jakelovebomb]

@adu1991 i wasn't saying you couldn't say that. i just don't like wwe anymore.

[diehardfighter]

Such an ignorant trainer

[boby6]

he did so many haha omg that was awesome

[IFknHateUTube]

hanging leg raises make my penis feel funny

[mgicdncer]

The hardest thing for me to find in a gym is a STRAIGHT BAR!

[drusen]

No need to work out the obliques?! now I`m confused...

[MUSIKALPRoPHET]

@drusen working out the obliques creates the look of a blocky wide waist. if you are doing squats or deadlifts, those will form the obliques, but you should do this exercise to build core strength. im here to correct my posture due to weak LOWER abs.

[ave383]

What can you do to make sure your abs are symetircal?I doubt it's up to genetics because why would one side be bigger then the other unless the other is not being worked like its counter part.

[iphilbanks]

I am doing hanging leg raises with 15 kg dumbbell between my ankles 15-20 per set, to develop my eight pack because I can feel an 8 pack I have a defined 6 pack also but I can see the shadow on the 8 and feel the 8 pack abs is this good what I am doing to get the 8 pack ? please let me know I am trying to bring all of my abs out further to have more definition.

many thanks

phil

[xJokerKid]

I have a 6pack & im trying to get an 8pack, would doing this work ?

[blackfoxmp5]

This is called the hanging pike, not hanging leg raises. It's a damn good workout, however.

[naariv]

Joe knows what he's talking about.

[CrystaTiBoha]

at first i thought it's just another exercise for sissies so they don't lose hope if they fail (bent leg raises ^ ^. i do 15-20 straight leg raises on a tree a day, in spirit of convict conditioning). originally i was looking for a v raise video, but the one mark was doing when he raised his legs above the bar looks cool, so i have something new to try! nice vid.

[ForeverAlexxxis]

lol...an anatomy expert would smack you for saying "working the lower abs" there's no such thing as just working lower abs.

The abs contract EVENLY, it would be like holding a length of elastic at each end and trying to pull one end to make it stretch more than the opposite side.

[shlucke]

is it good to do these ab exercises at the beginning of a full body workout?

i'm always way outta motivation/breath when i do em at the end, some people recommend that though since your abs are assisting your back. Working them before might stress your back alot more when you lift heavy squats or something...

??

[adastrarize]

Very informative vid, thanks for putting it up.

[watcherofmovies1234]

umm....fuck no?

[tacobell0wns]

The guy doing the exercise has the "pregnant bodybuilder" effect. Stay away from steroids, your internal organs are made of muscles, and steroids make your internal organs grow too.

[GhostAvenger620]

@tacobell0wns

I never mess with roids, but pretty women at my gym give me the same effect though; they make my internal organ grow as well. ;)

[BushidoCRH]

@tacobell0wns lol yep look at jay cutler haha

[TOWinkworthIpswich]

with the first 1 it helps if you stretch your hamstring and lower back

[dimashur]

omg are you fucking kidding me? how do you do that? no way i am doing that in this life time

[BenjaminPipic]

This exercise does not isolate your lower abs. You cannot isolate different parts of the abdominals. Just like you cant isolate the upper or lower part of your pectorals.

[wyatt5550]

@BenjaminPipic Not completely true, more stress done to the lower or higher part of the abs will deem more muscle on that section.

[BlazinBongs]

The video is scotthermanfitness n its called "ultimate core workout" n he does alot of weight on his obliques n they look crazy, not big at all

[BlazinBongs]

That oblique rhing he said is a myth, your obliques dont get wide like that, this guy scotthermanfitness shows a video n he ALWAYS does his obliques n they are crazy n not wide at all

[studiobuddy]

@BlazinBongs it depends on your body structure on how wide you will look with oblique development

[BABA1Gopp]

thanks Joe Tong ..Realyy appreicate ur instructions

[gtrgy888]

i used these + pullups + dips + 20 rep breathing squats and got strong in weeks. definitely try these because they strengthen every muscle of the core, decompress the spine, and build flexibility.

[alco713]

I do this excersice in circuit but i dont have the control all the way so i do the easy way i got up to 20 rep so i go easy , and work my way up ty for the nice work very good explanation !!!

[mitchleblanc]

Thanks for the video, well done.

[jeyventura]

thats remind me i need to do more abs

[GhostAvenger620]

@jeyventura

They can be fun!
