Roman Chair Leg Raise

Start: Climb onto the Roman Chair machine using the foot supports.
Press your back onto the vertical bench with your entire body completely straight.

Move: keeping your legs straight, lift your legs up as high past parallel with the floor as possible by flexing at the waist while rounding your lower back to bring your glutes forward and up.
Slowly lower your legs to the starting position.

Beginners can execute this exercise by bending their knees and lifting them up.
More advanced lifters can execute this exercise while hanging from a chin-up bar.
