1. Stand perpendicular to a stable object such as a wall, frame, or bar that you can hold onto for balance.
2. Begin by facing in one direction with your hand on the stable support.
3. Shift your body weight onto your standing leg that is closest to the support.
4. Start with the leg closest to the support planted firmly on the ground and swing your outer leg forward and backward. The images represent the forward and backward phase of the leg swing.
5. The swinging motion should be done in a controlled manner, starting with a small amplitude and gradually increasing the range of motion.
6. Ensure that your posture remains upright and your standing leg is slightly bent to avoid locking the knee.
7. Continue the swinging motion for the desired number of repetitions.
8. After completing the set on one leg, turn around and repeat the exercise with the other leg.
9. Remember to engage your core during the entire motion for stability.
10. This exercise is often used as a dynamic warm-up to prepare the muscles and joints for physical activity, improving flexibility and range of motion.
