Video Transcript

Our next clip is going to be a side leg raise. You are going to get down on the floor with your stability ball. Roll over to your side creating a little bit of balance by placing your hand on the floor. We are going to get both feet nice and balanced. You are going to take and stack both heels. You are going to extend one leg up. This is quite challenging especially if your balance is not that great but if you keep practicing your balance will improve. This is going to get the outer thigh. You may feel a little bit in the obliques and the core as you are trying to balance your body. Extend up, exhale on the way up and inhale on the way down. Now if this heel stack is too challenging for you, you can always take it down to a bend on the floor. If something is too challenging it is better to go ahead and modify it so you can do it with proper form and technique.
