Abduction while standing
Description
Training a stable stance, predominantly on one leg, is crucial for both sides. On the one hand, it prevents discomfort and, on the other, it establishes a stable foundation. The practitioner assumes the usual standing position and, with a stable upper body, attempts to repeatedly lift the unloaded leg, bend it at the hip and knee, and then lower it again. The movement is also repeated on the other side. The exercise trains the stability of the hip-surrounding muscles.
