Instructions
1. Lie on your back on a mat with your arms by your sides, palms pressing into the floor.
2. Bend your knees and place the soles of your feet together, allowing your knees to fall out to the sides.
3. Press your feet together firmly and ensure that your back is flat against the floor to engage your core.
4. Using your inner thigh muscles, gently squeeze your knees upwards an inch or two, creating a "pulse". You should feel a contraction in your inner thigh muscles. The images show the targeted muscle being worked during the exercise.
5. Slowly lower your knees back to the initial position, maintaining the pressure between your feet.
6. Perform the prescribed number of repetitions and sets, ensuring that your movements are controlled and focused on engaging the adductors.
Remember to breathe regularly throughout the exercise, exhaling as you pulse your knees upward and inhaling as you return to the starting position. If at any point you feel strain on your hips or pelvis, readjust your position or take a break. This exercise is great for toning the inner thighs and can be done at home without any equipment.
