Kicks

Kicking uses leg power.

Kicking uses leg power.

(c) Anne Asher 2007
It's time for leg power. Keeping one leg straight, kick the other one up. Aim for a horizontal leg - i.e. perpendicular to your trunk. If you don't fully get there, that's OK. You will improve every time you try it.

Kicks will build muscles in the leg and hips, which will be great for your back. Do 15-20 kicks.
