Side Leg Raises is a stretching exercise using body only that trains the adductors.
StretchingBody OnlyBeginnerPull
Primary muscles: Adductors
How to do it
- Stand next to a chair, which you may hold onto as a support. Stand on one leg. This will be your starting position.
- Keeping your leg straight, raise it as far out to the side as possible, and swing it back down, allowing it to cross the opposite leg.
- Repeat this swinging motion 5-10 times, increasing the range of motion as you do so.
