Side Hip Abduction
Expert Advice
Keep your movements controlled and avoid using momentum to lift the leg; focus on the glute muscles doing the work.
How-to-do Steps
- Lie on your side with your body in a straight line and your head resting on your arm.
- Keep your bottom leg slightly bent for stability.
- Lift your top leg straight up towards the ceiling, leading with your heel.
- Lower the leg back down slowly to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other side.
