Side leg lifts are a great exercise for everyone!
Fitness tip: Side leg lifts are a great exercise for the entire body that can benefit anyone. Lie on your right side doing your best to not roll back on your rearend, sit up on your rt. elbow and rest your head on your hand, keep your left arm bent with the hand on the floor in front of you , straighten your legs down and bring them in front of the body approx 25%. This is your starting position,now keeping your knees STRAIGHT, your legs glued together and your knees slightly facing away from eachother as to avoid a pigeon toe position, LIFT both legs off the floor and lower 10x then switch sides. Your entire leg will be working to stay straight and rotate outward including your inner thighs (adductors) to hold the legs together, your core and entire upper body will be working to not only stabilize and not roll around but your obliques will be working to lift the legs up. Try to think of your bottom let lifting your top leg off the floor to help you get going, don't worry about how high you lift but focus on legs staying glued together and staying straight. 10x-3 sets and get the stuffing and pumpkin pie leftovers working to your advantage as some strong fuel!
