Buttock Lift - Raised Leg

Lie flat on your back, knees bent and feet flat on the
floor. With your arms at your sides, lift and extend your
right leg, but keep the knees together. Tilt your pelvis up
and lift your buttocks 3 to 6 inches off the floor. Squeeze
your buttocks and tighten your abdominals.

Hold briefly, then release, keeping the leg extended.
Perform one set of reps, and then repeat with the opposite
leg. Strengthens abductor (outer thigh) and gluteus
(buttocks) muscles.
