Being the toughest exercise in the leg raise series, the 180 requires a good deal of flexibility and core strength to complete. To do this move, simply mimic the movement of a standard leg raise, but continue the motion until your toes hit the bar. With the 180 it is extremely important to keep your legs straight, as your body has the inclination to bend at the knees past 90 degrees. Also equally important is to prevent swing on your way down. Failing to do so will encourage an arched back and decrease the work produced by the abs.
