Forward Leg Swings Instructions

1. Stand straight with your feet hip-width apart and hold onto a wall.
2. Keeping one leg stationary, slowly swing the opposite leg forward and backward in a single smooth movement.
3. Switch sides and repeat until set is complete.

Proper Form And Breathing Pattern

Keep your abs tight, your upper body stable, and maintain a steady and deep breathing pattern. Actively use your muscles to swing the legs and, with each swing, take your leg closer to its full range of motion. Keep the movement fluid and swing the leg as high as you can without losing form.

Exercise Benefits

Forward leg swings are a great dynamic stretching exercise. The purpose of this exercise is to warm up and stretch the hip muscles and the hip joint. This movement helps to prevent injuries and also reduces pain in the hip area.
