Mobility: four position lift

Hip mobility and stability exercise. Great way to progressively load for increasing your range of motion in the hip rotation while also working those stabilizing muscles. Keep back foot out at a 90 degree angle and the front foot pointed. The front leg is with the knee pointing out to the side and the back leg is with the knee pointing forward. Rotate toward the back leg and lower about halfway down. 5 sets for 10 reps + hold for 10 sec on last rep Note: this exercise is excellent for giving our knees some “good” stress to keep it resilient as we age. However, if you have any knee or hips issues this may not be practical. Please consult with me if you’re unsure.
