Raising and lowering the pelvis in side support (left)

Individual work

Side support with the (left) arm stretched out (possibly against a wall for the correct straight position), free (right) arm supported on the hip or held high, raise and lower the pelvis.

Attention:
Head, torso, hips and knees practically form a line (pelvis does not tilt backwards or forwards), keep the shoulder above the elbow.

Lighten:
Knees on the floor; just hold the position.

Harden:
Additional weight (on the hips); unstable support (possible for both the arm and the legs); raise and lower the upper leg as soon as the torso is raised for additional abductor training.
