Instructions
- Lie on your side beside a bench or sturdy surface.
- Place your top leg (working leg) on the bench so that your foot or calf is supported, ensuring your leg is extended straight.
- Your bottom leg (unaffected leg) should hover underneath the bench, not touching it.
- Support your upper body by propping yourself up 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 between repetitions.
- Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
