Instructions
1. Lie flat on your back with your arms by your sides and your legs extended.
2. Draw one knee towards your chest, clasping your hands around it.
3. Keep the opposite leg straight and grounded on the floor.
4. Move the bent leg in a circular motion, making as large a circle as you can while keeping your lower back pressed into the floor.
5. Perform the movement slowly and deliberately, focusing on the mobility of the hip joint.
6. After completing the desired number of repetitions, repeat the movement with the other leg.
7. Make sure to perform the circles in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions to ensure balanced hip mobility.
8. Breathe steadily throughout the exercise, exhaling as you draw your knee towards your chest and inhaling as you extend it away.
Always consult with a fitness professional if you're unsure about the correct form or have any pre-existing health conditions.
