Side-lying leg raise
Work through a controlled leg lift from your side.
How to do it
- Lie on your side with the lower knee bent and head supported.
- Keep the upper leg long and raise it a modest distance.
- Lower it slowly, then switch sides.
Form check
Avoid rolling your hip backward.
Make it easier
Lift the leg only a few centimetres.
Move within a comfortable range and keep breathing. Stop if a movement causes pain or you feel unwell. Ask a qualified trainer for help with unfamiliar equipment.
