Description

Attach both ends of the elastic band to secure anchor points. Lie on your side so that the elastic band goes over your top leg. Make sure your top knee is straight and the leg is slightly tilted back (in slight extension). Start by lifting the top leg, performing a hip abduction, ensuring you feel a slight tension in the elastic band. Be careful not to move your leg forward while lifting, and do not turn your foot upward. Lower the leg, bend the knee, and pass it over the elastic band. Then, perform a hip adduction by pushing the leg towards the floor. Raise the leg again, bend the knee, and pass it back under the elastic band. Repeat this movement dynamically.
