Performing the: A Step-by-Step Tutorial Side Bridge Hip Abduction
Lift your body off the ground by pushing your hips upward, creating a bridge. Your weight should be supported by your forearm and the side of your bottom foot.
Once you've stabilized your body, raise your top leg as high as you can, keeping it straight. This is the hip abduction part of the exercise.
Pause for a moment at the top of the movement, then slowly lower your leg back down to meet the other.
Lower your hips back to the floor to complete one repetition. Repeat the exercise for the desired number of reps, then switch to the other side.
