How to do Captain’s Chair Leg Raise

Follow the numbered positions in the image and use each instruction as its matching cue.

  1. 1

    Set the starting position

    Breathing: Breathe steadily; do not hold your breath.

  2. 2

    Perform the effort phase

    Exhale, posteriorly tilt the pelvis, and raise the legs or knees through the Captain’s Chair Leg Raise path using the abdominals rather than momentum.

    Breathing: Exhale through the effort.

  3. 3

    Control the end position

    Control the highest position that can be reached without losing shoulder position, bending the lower back excessively, or swinging.

    Breathing: Breathe steadily; do not hold your breath.

  4. 4

    Return under control

    Inhale and lower the legs slowly until the body returns to a quiet, fully controlled start.

    Breathing: Inhale through the controlled return.

Setup and safety note: Use the declared Captain’s Chair Leg Raise setup, maintain controlled joint alignment, and stop if the movement causes pain.
