Standing Kickbacks | Standing kickbacks are a great way to strengthen the muscles on the back of your body. The secret to these exercises is to avoid pushing through the movement and instead ease into it.
Step 1: Stand tall and brace yourself against a wall, chair, or countertop to maximize safety and balance. Step 2: Slowly raise one leg straight behind you, reaching as far as you can while keeping your knee extended. Then, bring your leg back. Step 3: Repeat the movement with your other leg. Step 4: This counts as 1 repetition. Try to perform 3 sets of 30 repetitions. | | |
