Just relax and press - Static Back Abductor Presses



This exercise promotes hip stabilization bilaterally. This static back position creates horizontal load between shoulder and pelvis, which contributes to thoracic extension by engaging the stabilizers and flexors of the hip. This position helps prevent compensation from occurring while performing other types of muscular work.


1. Lie on your back with your legs up over a block or chair.

2. Place a strap around your legs just above the knees.

3. Place your arms out to the sides at 45 degrees from your body with palms up.

4. Relax your stomach and upper back.

5. Try to pull your knees apart by applying pressure outward against the strap, then release.

6. Repeat as directed on your menu.
