Keep your thighs aligned together and make sure your knee of the raised leg is pointing down.
Slowly bend the knee of your raised leg, bringing your heel towards your glutes as far as possible without straining.
Hold this position for a moment, ensuring your core is engaged and your body is stable.
Slowly lower your foot back to its initial position, and repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other leg.
Pro Tip
Core Engagement: Engage your core and keep your back straight throughout the exercise. This will not only help maintain balance but also protect your lower back from strain. A common mistake is to arch the back or hunch over during the exercise, which could lead to potential injuries. Controlled Movement: Lift one foot off the ground and curl your leg up towards your buttocks, keeping the movement controlled and slow. Avoid the mistake of rushing through the exercise or using momentum to lift the leg, as this could lead to injury and decrease the effectiveness of the exercise. Full Range of Motion: Try to bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible,
