Instructions:
- 1Lie down on your side with your legs stacked on top of each other
- 2Slowly lift your lower leg upward as far as you can
- 3Pause at the top for a couple of seconds
- 4Slowly lower your raised leg back to the starting position
- 5Turn around to your other side and repeat the movement with your other leg
Tips:
- Hold onto something if you're having trouble maintaining balance
- Do not move your torso during the exercise - isolate the movement to your hips
- Try not to use momentum to lift your leg, focus on using the target muscles
- The movement should be controlled, taking about 2-3 seconds to lift your leg and about the same time to lower it
