Things You'll Need:
-
Step 1
Place hands and knees on exercise mat. Hands directly in line with shoulders. Your head should be facing upward.
-
Step 2
Keep your back straight and your neck in line with your spine. Do not allow your head to fall toward your chest. With stomach muscles contracted to protect the back, lift your left leg out to the side, keeping it bent and as close to a 90 degree angle from the floor as possible.
-
Step 3
Hold for a count of ten seconds. Lower leg and lift again.
-
Step 4
Switch to the other leg and perform five repetitions with each leg. If your body posture is correct, you will feel your buttocks fatiguing. This means you are holding the pose properly and working the targeted muscle groups.

on 4/29/2008 You go! If you did this exercise even three times a week, and built the reps up to 15 on each side, I guarantee you'd change the shape of your hips and thighs within just a few weeks. Thank you!
