THE MOVE TO MASTER: SIDE-LYING LEG LIFT

Kneel on your left knee with your body facing forward Use your left arm as support on the floor. Keep centered with your rib cage and abdominals pulled in. Put your right hand on your hip and extend your right leg outward to hip height (1). Then lower your right leg 2 to 4 inches, using your abs to stabilize your body (2). (Lowering your leg only a few inches is much harder than lowering it all the way to the floor.) You should feel exertion in your outer right thigh. Do 10 to 12 reps, then switch sides. Do four sets on each leg every other day and you should see results in four to six weeks.
