Overview
The single-leg curl up is a bodyweight abdominal movement that teaches and reinforces abdominal “bracing” for strength training. It is usually performed along with variations of the bird dog and side plank as the “McGill big three.” The curl up can be performed for time or for reps, with or without pauses at the top position, as part of a warm-up or the core-focused component of any workout.

Variations
Variations of fitness exercises refer to different ways of performing a specific exercise or movement to target various muscle groups, intensities, or goals. These variations aim to challenge the body differently, prevent plateaus, and cater to individuals with varying fitness levels.
Alternatives

These alternative exercises can be used as substitutes when the original exercise is unavailable or challenging to perform due to various reasons such as equipment limitations, injuries, or personal preferences.
