I use the hanging straps a lot and HIGHLY recommend them for knee lifts and twisted knee lifts.
The next step would be straight legged lifts.

I thought they were almost impossible a month ago, now I can do a couple of sets getting my toes up to waist height with my legs straight....getting past that still seems way too hard but I know it IS possible eventually ha ha!

**beginners, have a spotter lightly hold ur lower back until u build up the strength and control to stop swinging, that helped me a lot**
