Side Lying Hip Raise Abduction

 

Setup

Lay on your side with upper body supported by your forearm with hand facing forward, knees bent and shoulders, hip and knee in a straight line

 

Movement

Tighten your core and slowly raise your body up towards the ceiling as you also lift your top leg up at the same time and return to the start.  The hold position resembles a star when looking at the position of your head, arms and legs.
