Hip Abduction

In this video Cindy is demonstrating standing Hip Abduction.  This exercise strengthens muscles on the sides of your hips.

  • Standing with both feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart.
  • Move one leg out to the side, leading out with the side of the foot
  • Don't turn your toe outward
  • Keep your upper body upright, don't lean to the opposite side of the moving leg
  • Move the leg back in to the starting position

Perform on both legs 5-10 reps, 1-2x per day

The number of exercise repetitions and sets per day are just a suggestion and should be adjusted, as needed, to fit your fitness level and tolerance.
