Kriti Sanon's Core Controller Exercise for Toned Abs
Kriti Sanon used leg raises to get toned abs for her movie Cocktail 2.
Her trainer, Sanchita Vijayvargiya, calls it a 'core controller' because it teaches your tummy muscles to keep your back flat while moving your legs.
Dr. Nitish Kapil explains that leg raises work many muscles, including the rectus abdominis and hip flexors.
He says it's important to do the exercise correctly to avoid hurting your lower back.
You should lie flat, raise your legs to a 90-degree angle, and lower them slowly without letting your back arch.
If your back lifts off the floor, you should stop or bend your knees to avoid strain.
