How to do it

  1. Hang from a pull-up bar with your hands about shoulder-width apart and arms straight.
  2. Let your legs hang straight down and keep your body still.
  3. Tighten your stomach and raise your legs until they are about parallel to the floor, then pause.
  4. Slowly lower your legs without swinging.

Beginner tip: Lower your legs slowly so your body doesn't swing.
