One-Sided V-Legs

Strengthens and stretches the inner thighs; strengthens the abdominal muscles because they are used as stabilizers.

Equipment:
Exercise Mat

Exercise:

Lie down on a mat with your legs straight up in the air directly over your hips and your arms straight at shoulder level.
Slowly lower your right leg to the side and bring it back to the starting position.
Do the desired number of repetitions. Repeat on the other leg.

Performance tips:

Keep your hips stationary on the mat as you lower and lift your leg.
Because this is a one-sided exercise, you will feel your abdominal muscles tightening as you stabilize your torso.
Lower your leg only as far as you can control. Properly stabilize your torso on the mat.
Beginners should do this exercise against a wall for support.
Another variation is to do alternating legs

Repetitions:
Do 10 repetitions on each side
