Lying Leg Raise to Side
Expert Advice
Keep your movements controlled and avoid using momentum to lift your leg. This will help maintain tension on the target muscles and improve stability.
How-to-do Steps
- Lie on your side with your legs extended straight.
- Rest your head on your lower arm and place your upper hand on the floor for balance.
- Engage your core and raise your top leg up towards the ceiling while keeping it straight.
- Pause at the top of the movement, then slowly lower your leg back down to the starting position.
- Complete the desired number of repetitions before switching sides.
