The Side-lying Bridge with Clamshell is an excellent full body exercise. This exercise helps to strengthen your core, shoulders, and hip muscles and is crucial in keeping your back, hips, and knees healthy!

Begin in the sidelying position with knees bent to approximately 60 degrees and propped up on your elbow.

Lift your hips off of the floor and hold for one second, making sure your shoulders, hips and knees and in a straight line.

Lift your top knee away from the bottom knee while keeping your ankles in contact with one another. Hold for 3 seconds.

Return to starting position and repeat 10x per side for 3 rounds!
