Standing alternate hip flexion will strengthen your hip flexor muscles, making it easier for you to lift your leg during everyday activities, such as getting into and out of a car.
Begin by standing holding onto a chair for support with tall posture. Your feet should be about hip width apart.
You may also perform this exercise seated on a chair if you have poor balance and feel unsteady on your feet.
Slowly lift one knee up toward the ceiling like you are marching. Lower your leg back down to the starting position. Keep a tall posture. Repeat on the other side.
