Side Bridges/Planks with Knees Bent

  • The patient starts in sidelying with the R forearm under their R shoulder and the L hand on the L hip with the hips straight and the knees flexed.
  • Ask the patient to lift the R hip off the table until their spine is straight and have them hold the position for 10 seconds, working up to 10 repetitions.
  • Once the patient can easily perform 10 repetitions with 10 second holds with their knees flexed they can increase the level of difficulty of this exercise by starting with the hips and knees straight.
