Side-lying leg pulses

IntermediateLegs & glutesOn the floor

Set-up

Lie on your side with your head on your lower arm and lift your top leg to hip height.

How to do it

1. Pulse the top leg up an inch and back, small and steady.
2. Keep the leg long and the toes pointing forward.
3. Breathe evenly; no rushing.

In a Wallform routine: about 20 pulses per side, or move at your own pace until the timer ends. Do one side, then the other.

Make it easier or harder

• Easier: Side-lying leg lift
• Harder: Side hip lift

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.
