Abdominal Exercise: Start PositionThis is the start position. It is the same for all exercises. When you start doing the full leg raises, you might start hanging with your hands rather than the abdominal straps, depending on which is easier.

Abdominal Exercise: Parallel Leg Raise End PositionThis is the end position for the parallel leg raise. It is similar to the knee raise, except that you keep your legs fairly straight (not locked, but only slightly bent).

Abdominal Exercise: Full Leg Raise End PositionThis is the end position for the full leg raise. You bring your legs all the way over your head. Remember, however, that you still must lower in a controlled fashion, taking two full seconds to return to the start position. If you find yourself "falling" then count that set as over with and attempt more reps the next workout.

Abdominal Exercise: Vertical ScissorsTo perform the vertical scissors, you must start with a full leg raise. You stay at the inverted position. You start with your legs together then spread them wide, as illustrated. You then close your legs to complete the rep. Do not return to the hanging position until all of your reps are completed. Your abdominal muscles will stay continually contracted to stabilize your body in the inverted position as you perform the reps.
