Abduction of an arm and leg crosswise in standing position (left) ► abduction

Individual work

Stand shoulder-width apart, in the centre of the elastic band. Cross the elastic band in front of your body and hold one end of the elastic band in your hands with your arms slightly bent in front of your body (approximately hip height). Spread your arm (right) and leg (left) crosswise to form a diagonal line (raise your arm diagonally upwards, lift your leg sideways off the floor in the opposite direction).

Attention:
The hand, shoulder, hip and leg are in line when the body is stretched.

Lighten:
Choose an elastic band with less resistance.

Harden:
Choose an elastic band with greater resistance.

Variation:
Switch sides after each exercise (alternating = organisation 1 exercise)
