Legs – Standing Leg Abductions with Short Resistance Band

Bands:

Place the band around both legs, right above the ankle.

Body Positioning:

Stand up straight with your chest up, back straight and head straight, and hands on hips. Activate your core.

Movement:

While keeping your legs straight, push one leg out to the side to a 45 degree angle. Slowly lower your leg to starting position. Repeat 10 – 15 times.

Points to remember:

Keep your legs straight throughout the movement, and push out from your heel.

Rule:

If you are able to do more than 10-15 reps, change to a heavier band.
