Hanging Windshield Wiper — abs compound exercise in the LIFTAG library

Hanging Windshield Wiper

Compound · Weight × reps · Time

Keeping the shoulders engaged and both hands firm, rotate the pelvis and sweep the legs in an arc toward one side, through centre, and toward the other. Use only the lateral range you can control without a large swing, bent elbows, or a sudden pull on the shoulders. Hanging windshield wipers combine hip and trunk rotation with demanding abdominal, latissimus, shoulder, and grip work. Master hanging leg raises and controlled bent-knee wipers first.
