Instructions

Wall Supported Front Leg Swing

1. Starting Position:
- Stand facing a wall with your feet hip-width apart.
- Place one hand against the wall at about shoulder height for balance.
- Keep your other arm relaxed by your side.

2. Leg Positioning:
- Shift your weight onto the leg that is closest to the wall (the standing leg).
- Lift your opposite leg (the swinging leg) slightly off the ground.

3. Movement:
- Slowly swing your lifted leg forward in front of your body while keeping it straight.
- Aim to swing your leg to about waist height, if comfortable.

4. Return:
- Allow your leg to swing back to the starting position, returning to the original position behind your standing leg.

5. Repetitions:
- Perform 10-15 swings with one leg, then switch to the other leg and repeat.

6. Tips:
- Keep your core engaged for better balance.
- Maintain a steady and controlled movement throughout the exercise.
- Ensure that your movement is fluid and avoid any jerky motions.

7. Cool Down:
- After completing the sets, take a moment to stretch your legs to prevent muscle stiffness.
