What is a Side Oblique Leg Raise?
The Side Oblique Leg Raise is an exercise that primarily targets the oblique muscles. This exercise is performed lying down with no equipment needed other than a mat. In addition to strengthening the oblique muscles, this movement also works the core and other supporting abdominal muscles.
