Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Hanging Oblique Knee Raise.
The hanging oblique knee raise is a core exercise performed while hanging from a pull-up bar. By rotating the hips and drawing the knees toward one shoulder, this movement targets the obliques more directly than a standard knee raise, building rotational core strength and improving abdominal definition.
The Hanging Oblique Knee Raise is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
