Initiate the exercise on your side by positioning your elbow directly under your shoulder and placing your free hand on your hip. Foot placement is staggered (top leg in front of the bottom leg). Position yourself so that the handles are directly below the anchor of the attachment.  Extend your hip away from the ground, maintaining a neutral spine by forming a straight line from ear to ankle. Hold the position for the designated time. Do not allow your shoulder to extend beyond your elbow. If you cannot maintain hip stability or neutral alignment, end the exercise.
