Side Lying Leg Circle

Equipment

1

Lift your top leg to about hip height, keeping your foot flexed and your leg straight.

2

Begin to make small circles in the air with your raised leg, keeping your hips steady and your core engaged to avoid rocking back and forth.

3

After completing a set number of circles in one direction, reverse and do the same number of circles in the opposite direction.

4

Lower your leg back down to complete one rep, then switch sides and repeat the exercise with the other leg.

Pro Tip

Controlled Movements: Avoid rushing through the movements. The key to getting the most out of this exercise is to perform each leg circle slowly and with control. This helps to engage the targeted muscles more effectively and reduces the risk of injury. Proper Breathing: It's essential to maintain proper breathing throughout the exercise. Inhale as you begin the circle and exhale as you complete it. This helps to keep your muscles oxygenated and can also help to maintain your focus and rhythm during the exercise. Avoid Hip Movement
