Hip Abduction

Rating: (3 Ratings)

Lie down on your left side. Extend your left arm towards your head so that it is in line with your body, and rest your head on it. Bring your legs towards your upper body so that they form a 90 degree angle with it. Lift your right leg upwards so that it is perfectly vertical, leaving your left leg on the ground. Slowly lower your right leg back down onto your left leg and repeat.

Do two sets of 15 reps before switching sides and starting over with the left leg.

Did these today!! Oww!!! I did more than 2 sets of them but my legs & butt were already hurting after around 10 reps of them. Will definitely do these more often.

Easy to do! I felt like it worked more of my Côté de la fesse or even possibly my outer thigh more than my actual glutes but once you finish your two sets you can feel "the burn". I suggest doing this one first in your workout because needless to say, your nose is in your armpit.
