Overview
The hip raise (bent knee) is an exercise that targets the abdominal muscles, particularly the rectus abdominis or six-pack muscles. It is performed by lying on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. You then raise your hips off the floor until your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Hold this position for a few seconds before lowering your hips back to the floor. This exercise can be performed for multiple sets of repetitions, with the number of repetitions and sets increasing as you get stronger.
