Abduction and adduction of the leg in lateral forearm support (right) ► clamshell
Power
Individual work
Side support on the right forearm, with the lower knee, the lower leg (pointing diagonally backwards) and the outer instep of the foot on the floor. The upper (left) leg is supported on the lower leg. An elasticated band is stretched between the legs (place the band around the thighs slightly above the knees).
