Side Lying Hip Lifts | #favoritemove

This is literally one of my favorite all time moves. I love how it works that area of the outer upper back around the bra (Lats), the waist (Obliques), outer and upper hips (Glutes), and outer thighs (Hip Abductors). You can do it slowly with control OR if you’re strong, you can speed it up and make it more of a cardio strength move because it is a big range of motion.

Side_Lying_Hip_Lift_1

Bring elbow underneath shoulder with forearm parallel with top edge of mat. Keep hips and ankles in line with back edge of mat and each other. Inhale.

Side_Lying_Hip_Lift_2

Exhale and lift body up while you extend the top arm and top leg.

 

Side_Lying_Hip_Lift_3

Inhale, lower hips down and bring top elbow and knee toward each other.

 

Side_Lying_Hip_Lift_4

Exhale and reach back out into an extension.

Repeat 10-20 times on each side. I hope you love it as much as I do. #favoritemove
