How to do it

Lie on your side with your knees bent and your elbow under your shoulder. Lift your hips off the floor so that your body makes a straight line from your knees to your shoulders. Hold, breathing normally, then lower. One repetition is one hold on each side.

If an exercise hurts more than you expect, stop and contact your clinician.
