Side-Lying Leg Lift

Positioning:
1. Lie on your side with your legs stacked on top of each other.
2. Keep your head resting on your lower arm, while placing your other arm either flat on the ground or on your hip for stability.
3. Your body should form a straight line from your head to your feet.

Movement:
1. Engage your core to stabilize your body.
2. Slowly lift your top leg towards the ceiling while keeping your bottom leg on the ground.
3. Raise your leg as high as you can without rotating your hips or torso.
4. Hold for a moment at the top of the lift.
5. Lower your leg back to the starting position in a controlled manner.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions (typically 10-15) before switching sides to work the other leg.

Tips:
- Keep your movements slow and controlled to engage your muscles effectively.
- Make sure to keep your hips stacked and avoid twisting your body.
- Breathe evenly throughout the exercise. Inhale as you lower your leg and exhale as you lift it.
