Purpose: Strengthen the gluteus medius and abductors to correct knees falling inward. Starting Position: Stand with your feet straight ahead about shoulder width apart, knees slightly bent with a Theraband around your mid-lower leg. Movement:
From the starting position, draw in your abdominal muscles.
Take a slow and controlled step out laterally (to the side) with one leg while maintaining proper foot positioning, slightly bent knees and a neutral spine.
Keeping the Theraband taut, step in with your other leg to return to the starting position.
Repeat for a total of 10 steps in each direction. Repeat this exercise 3 times.
