Alternate Leg Drops

Primary Muscle
Primary Transverse and oblique abdominals

Start
Lying down on your back, keep your spine in a neutral or slightly flat position and your lower abs drawn in towards your spine. Position your legs straight up from your hips with your knees bent. Position your arms by your side.

Movement
Keeping your abdominals drawn in towards your spine. Keeping your knee bend constant, lower your right leg from the hip towards the ground as far as you can while keeping your spine neutral. Return to the start position and repeat on the opposite side.

Tips
When lowering your legs away from you, do not let your spine arch out of neutral. Only take your legs away from you as far as you can control the position of your spine. This will make sure your abdominals are the primary muscle group used and not your back.
