This page tells you what the machine is. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes and a video of the movement are in the Luio app — the video shows the range of motion that text cannot describe.
Open in the app⚠️ Most common mistake: Swinging the body for momentum, which removes ab engagement and turns the rep into a leg swing. Lifting the knees with the hip flexors only, never tilting the pelvis up to load the abs. Dropping the legs fast at the bottom, which trains the descent poorly and adds shoulder strain. Hanging completely loose at the shoulders, which stresses the joints and reduces core stability.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Keskivartalo.
