The primary focus of this workout is to build strength in the muscles on your abs.
Loop the resistance band on a stable object that has metal bars a few inches above your height.
Lie flat on the ground with your back on the floor and your head near the anchor.
Raise your hand above your head and hold the object using both sides simultaneously at a height just above your head.
Position your feet together then hook the other end of the resistance band. Ensure there is enough tension to allow you to move your legs comfortably.
Slowly start raising your feet together with the toes facing upwards to shift all your body weight to your shoulders.
Ensure your body is in a flat position for the exercise to be effective. Once you reach the maximum height of your legs, pause for a second and lower them till they touch the floor. Hold then make repetitions.

To perform this exercise correctly, you will require some reliable and durable bars above you to act as anchors for the resistance band.
One bar is for you to hold while another you use to tie the resistance band. Loop one end and leave enough room to move your feet with sufficient tension.
Firmly press the other bar and then, with some assistance, loop the other end of the resistance band on both of your feet. In a well-calculated manner, change the positioning of your arms so that your elbows are facing the roof.
The bar you are holding should be in a much lower position than the one anchoring the loop.
For building real muscles that will hold your body in some pretty challenging positions you know that you need high-grade resistance bands for those assisted positions and conditioning work like the LS Heavy Duty Band Kit – see below.
Start moving until you achieve a flat state, then return to your original posture. For the front levers, change your location such that you now face the resistance band.
Hold the bar firmly and then loop the resistance band on your feet. Ensure your body is in a straight place while doing both workouts. Start moving your feet upwards slowly until your body achieves a flat position.
Hold then slowly go to the starting position. Make equal repetitions for both exercises.
