- Lie on your side beside a bench or sturdy surface.
- Place your top (working) leg on the bench so that your foot or calf is supported, ensuring your leg is extended straight.
- Your bottom (unaffected) leg should hover under the bench, not touching it.
- Support your upper body by propping yourself on your forearm and maintain a straight body line.
- Engage your core and adductors to lift your hips off the floor into a side plank position.
- Hold briefly at the top, then slowly lower your hips and bottom leg without letting them touch the floor.
- Repeat as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
