Set-up

Lie on your side with your head on your lower arm, legs long and the soles of your feet touching the wall.

How to do it

  1. Lift your top leg to about hip height, toes pointing forward.
  2. Lower it slowly without letting it rest.
  3. Keep your hips stacked; don't roll back.

In a Wallform routine: about 12 lifts per side, or move at your own pace until the timer ends. Do one side, then the other.

Make it easier or harder

Wallform is general fitness, not medical advice. If you're pregnant or postpartum, recovering from an injury or have a health condition, check with a doctor or a qualified professional before you start. Stop any move that hurts.
