Conseils techniques
Lift one leg at a time, keeping it straight, and raise it to a 90-degree angle if possible. The movement should be slow and controlled, not fast and jerky. Rapid movements can lead to muscle strain and won't engage your core as effectively.
While lifting one leg, keep the other leg flat on the ground. A common mistake is to lift the other leg off the ground, which can put unnecessary strain on your lower back.
Remember to engage (tighten) your abdominal muscles while lifting your leg. This helps to stabilize your body and makes the exercise more effective.
