Standing hip extension

Move the leg back without arching your lower back.

How to do it

  1. Stand tall while holding a fixed support.
  2. Take one leg slightly behind you.
  3. Return it beside the other foot and change sides.

Form check

Keep the range small enough that your pelvis stays still.

Make it easier

Slide the foot back along the floor.

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.
