Body Wedge Leg Exercises

1. Adductor Muscles - Lie down on your left side with your head at the thickest part of the wedge. You can use your arms for stability. Raise and lower your right leg slowly. Exhale when you raise it and inhale when you bring it down to an inch or two above the wedge. Do four sets of ten repetitions. Repeat with the other leg.

2. Hamstrings. Lie down on your stomach with your head at the thick part of the wedge. You can use your arms for stability. Raise and lower one leg at at time. Exhale when you raise it and inhale when you bring it down to an inch or two above the wedge.
