Lower Body Exercises - Hip Flexor
This again strengthens the thigh and the hip muscles.
Using the back of a chair or a table for support, stand
sideways by the support, using one hand to balance
yourself.
Breathe in and then breathe out slowly as you take
five seconds to raise your left leg up at the front,
bending the knee as far as you can go.
Hold it for the count of one, then take 3-5 seconds to
lower it back to the start position again as you finish
breathing out.
Rest for one breath.
Repeat three to five times then change legs.

Continue, until you have done the exercise 9 to 15
times with each leg.
