Side Plank Hip Adduction

Lie on your side with your lower elbow beneath your shoulder and the ankle of your upper leg on a stable bench.

Press into the bench with your upper leg and raise your hips and lower leg to form a long body line.

Slowly lower your hips and lower leg back to the starting position.

The main working muscles are the hip adductors. The obliques, abdominals assist the movement.

Do not let your hips rotate or your supporting shoulder collapse toward your ear.

Exhale as you lift your body and inhale as you lower.

Count one lift and controlled lower as 1 repetition and match repetitions on both sides.
