Description

Get on all fours, with your hands under your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Place a weight around the ankle of the leg you want to work on. Without moving the rest of your body, slowly extend your leg backward. Gently return it to the starting position, then repeat. Be careful not to arch your lower back during the movement.
