Side Lying Leg Lifts

  • Lie on either side with your hips, shoulders and feet aligned and stacked on top of each other
  • Engage your core muscles to support your spine
  • Your lower arm can be bent and placed under your head for support while your upper arm can rest upon your upper hip
  • Gently raise your upper leg off your lower leg
  • Keep your knee straight and your foot in a neutral position. Do not allow the hips to roll forward or backwards. Continue raising the leg until your hips begin to tilt, your waist collapses into the floor or until you feel tension develop in your low back or oblique muscles
  • Return the leg to your starting position in a slow, controlled manner
  • Repeat for both sides
  • Complete the necessary repetitions as prescribed by your clinician
