Back to Exercises

Difficulty: Hard

Impact Level: Low

Target Body Parts: abs, shoulders, glutes

Instructions

Lay down on your right side and rest your upper body on your right elbow, making sure the elbow is in the same vertical line as your shoulder. Place your left hand on your left hip to help as a cue to keep your hips stacked.

Then lift your hips up by pushing down with your elbow and the outside edge of your right foot. The aim is to lift your hips until they align into a straight line from the crown of your head down to the soles of your feet. Squeeze your glutes and engage your core to keep stable.

Keeping your left leg straight, swing it forward, aiming your left foot toward your right hand. Swing it back to the start, then keeping the left leg straight, raise it up toward the ceiling, then lower to the start.
