There are two variations of Leg Pull.

1- Leg Pull Front

2- Leg Pull (It's not called Leg Pull Back for some reason!)

In Leg Pull Front- there is an opportunity to work on your plank position form. This includes keeping your shoulders spread and slightly protracted. It also includes keeping the hips down and avoiding rotation. Sometimes this is just the perfect place to start. Finding your plank position and working out all the kinks.

THEN... You start shaking things up by leg lifts. OH BOY!

But the Leg Pull is where it is really at. Powering up into a reverse plank is harder than it looks. First of all, it's a stretch across the pecs and triceps. Then it takes some great hamstring and glute strength to get the hips up and in a straight line. Most people will have a little dip in their hips. ESPECIALLY when they go to lift one leg. The goal is to keep the hips high (in a straight line) and keep them from dropping or sifting to the opposite side. (Meaning- when you lift your right leg, your left hip doesn't drop down.

As usual, Katie speaks for the masses when she lets us know where the struggle bus comes in! :)
