Shifting exercise: alternating extension and flexion of one leg while standing

Individual work

Stand slightly staggered (front facing forwards) with an upright upper body and arms bent in front of the body (hands at chin height). Raise the back leg, bend it and push it out forwards (kicking movement) and, after stretching the leg as high as possible in the air, lower the free leg in front of the body. Then perform the next movement with the other (back) leg. The kicking movements create a continuous movement.

Lighten:
lift the free leg less.

Harden:
additional weight on the legs.
