Hanging Leg Raise vs Lying Leg Raise Strength Standards
Compare your hanging leg raise and lying leg raise against strength standards for your sex, age range, and bodyweight. Enter one recent result for each exercise to see your strength levels, next target, and which exercise is the priority.
Enter one continuous strict repetition set for each exercise. Use one continuous unassisted bodyweight hanging leg raise set from a full reset to the approved top position; use one continuous set raising both extended legs to the approved top and lowering to the approved reset. Repetitions are never converted into weight. Each exercise keeps its own measurement type. Age range changes only an exercise whose standards use age.
Hanging Leg Raise vs Lying Leg Raise Strength Standards by Bodyweight
These tables show the minimum result each exercise needs to reach Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, and Elite. Weight-based standards are shown in pounds and kilograms. Direct-performance standards remain strict repetitions or seconds and show every applicable age range.
Find your bodyweight in the men’s or women’s table, then read across the strength levels. Results measured in weight, repetitions, or seconds are not meant to match and are never converted into one another. Use the calculator for your exact inputs and a direct comparison of the strength levels.

How Your Hanging Leg Raise vs Lying Leg Raise Result Is Calculated
The two exercises can use different measurements. The calculator rates each result against the standards for that exercise first, then compares the resulting strength levels and progress toward the next level. It never invents a reps-to-weight conversion.
2. Rate the Hanging Leg Raise result
Sex-, bodyweight-band-, and age-specific repetition thresholds map the strict set to a canonical strength tier; no reps-to-weight conversion is used. The calculator uses one continuous unassisted bodyweight hanging leg raise set scored by total strict reps and does not convert the repetitions into an estimated weight.
3. Rate the Lying Leg Raise result
The canonical tool uses cohort-specific repetition bands and a stretch target. The calculator uses strict continuous bodyweight repetitions and does not convert the repetitions into an estimated weight.
4. Compare strength level and progress
The lower strength level is the priority. When both exercises reach the same level, a priority appears only when one is at least 10 points farther from its next target. Otherwise, the result is Balanced. Age range changes only the exercise whose standards include age; it remains an analytics field for the other exercise.
| Stage | What happens |
|---|---|
| Rate the hanging leg raise | Rate one continuous strict bodyweight hanging leg raise set without converting repetitions into weight. Measurement: Total strict reps. |
| Rate the lying-leg-raise set | Compare strict repetitions with the applicable thresholds. Measurement: Strict continuous lying leg-raise reps. |
| Compare levels | Use each exercise’s own level and next target; do not compare or divide results that use different measurements. |
How Men’s Hanging Leg Raise and Lying Leg Raise Standards Differ
What the men’s standards show:
Hanging Leg Raise Elite targets55 reps → 28 reps
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 120 lb bodyweight.
Lying Leg Raise Elite targets115 reps → 58 reps
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 120 lb bodyweight.
Comparison boundaryStrength level first
Raw repetitions, seconds, and weights are not divided or converted. The calculator compares each exercise’s canonical tier and progress within that tier.
The exact table above is the correct way to inspect direct or unlike measurements. A pounds-difference chart would be invalid because repetitions, seconds, and estimated weight do not share a unit.
How Women’s Hanging Leg Raise and Lying Leg Raise Standards Differ
What the women’s standards show:
Hanging Leg Raise Elite targets46 reps → 23 reps
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 100 lb bodyweight.
Lying Leg Raise Elite targets105 reps → 53 reps
Elite direct-performance targets from the youngest to oldest listed age range at 100 lb bodyweight.
Comparison boundaryStrength level first
Raw repetitions, seconds, and weights are not divided or converted. The calculator compares each exercise’s canonical tier and progress within that tier.
Use the calculator to apply the correct age range and exact bodyweight before comparing the two strength levels.
Hanging Leg Raise and Lying Leg Raise Exercises Used by This Calculator
This calculator uses a strict bodyweight hanging leg raise and a strict lying leg-raise set. Use strict canonical Hanging Leg Raise and Lying Leg Raise tests. Do not mix variations, assistance, partial range, momentum, or different load conventions.
Count one continuous strict hanging set
Hang from a fixed bar, raise both legs to the approved top position without swinging, and lower under control to a full reset. Do not count knee raises, captain-chair raises, toes-to-bar, swinging, weighted, partial, or combined-set reps.
Count controlled extended-leg repetitions
Raise both extended legs to the approved top and lower to the approved reset with the trunk supported. Do not enter reverse crunches, hanging raises, toes-to-bar, captain-chair raises, V-ups, bent-knee, partial, assisted, or combined-set reps.
Enter one recent Hanging Leg Raise result and one recent Lying Leg Raise result
Enter one continuous strict repetition set for each exercise.
