Single Leg Stability

jacky

Purpose: Strengthen/activate the glute med and adductors to improve balance and correct inward knees.
Starting Position: Without shoes, stand with your feet straight ahead about shoulder width apart with a light-weight ball above your head.
Movement:

• From the starting position, draw in your abdominal muscles and tighten your glutes.
• Lift one foot off the ground and slightly bend the opposite knee.
• In a slow and controlled movement, bend from the hips and lower the ball to the ground while keeping arms extended. Focus on your balance while initiating the movement at the hip joint not the back. Try not to move your foot on the ground.
• Lightly tap the ball on the ground then extend your body back to the starting position.
• Repeat for 10 repetitions on each leg.
