Standing Side Leg Raise
Expert Advice
Engage your core and stand tall to maintain balance. Control the leg raise to avoid swinging and to keep tension on the side glutes.
How-to-do Steps
- Stand with your feet together and hold onto a chair or wall for balance if needed.
- Slowly lift one leg to the side, keeping your toes pointing forward.
- Raise the leg as high as you can without tilting your torso.
- Lower the leg back down with control.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other leg.
