Captain's Chair Knee Raise

Starting position

• Support yourself in the captain's chair, forearms on the pads, back against the backrest.
• Legs hanging loosely.

Execution

• Pull the knees to the chest; the pelvis curls up slightly.
• Lower slowly without swinging.
• Harder: raise straight legs.

Common mistakes

• Using momentum.
• Only lifting the legs without curling the pelvis.
• Shrugging the shoulders.
