Prone leg lift...

This week I am demonstrating a

Prone leg lift-

This simple exercise is great for strengthening your bottom and for pelvic stability.

Step 1-

Lie on your front with your forehead resting on the back of your arms and keep your legs straight. Engage your core and squeeze your buttocks together.

Step 2-

Keeping your buttocks squeezed, lift your leg up in a slow controlled manner as high as you can without using your back to lift the leg.

Step 3-

Hold the leg up for a couple of seconds before slowly lowering back to the floor. Complete the repetitions on the same leg before switching to the other side.

Aim to complete between 5 and 10 repetitions on each leg.
