73- IN-1 EXERCISE

1

Lie on the floor on your right side with your hips and knees bent so that your shins and thighs form a 90-degree angle. Place the mini band around your thighs just above your knees. Place your right elbow on the floor below under your right shoulder to prop up your upper body. For balance and stability, place your left hand on the ground in front of your chest. Lift your left knee and extend your left foot in front of your body until it’s straight. Reverse the movement and lower your knee to the starting position. Do 10 repetitions.

Stay in the same position: Lie on the floor on your right side with your hips and knees bent so that your shins and thighs form a 90-degree angle. Place the band around your right thigh just above the knee and the arch of your left foot. (You’ll need to draw your left knee in toward your chest to reach the position and pull the band over the top of your foot until it’s around the arch of your left foot.) From here, press your left foot away from your body so it’s in line with your spine. Release to start and repeat. Do 10 repetitions.

Keeping the left foot flexed and parallel to the floor, lift your leg up and down, touching the floor with your toes. Do 10 repetitions. Then, repeat 1, 2, and 3 on the other side.
