Side Leg Raise Exercise Video

Wear ankle weights on both legs. Stand beside a sturdy, non-moving chair, table or countertop able to bear your weight. Use your left hand as an anchor to balance yourself (hold on to the chair at about hip height, or put your palm on the surface of the table or countertop). Keep your feet together. Without putting all your weight on your hand, keep your torso straight and raise your right leg straight outward (to the side) as far as you can on a 3-count (your leg muscles should tighten, but not painfully). Hold, then return to the start position on a 3-count. Repeat the exercise with your left leg.
