The first exercise is a clamshell exercise. This works the gluteus medius and rotator muscles.


Next are 4-way hip exercises lying down. This is hip flexion, hip abduction, hip adduction, and hip extension. They are a great way to work all the muscles around the hip to help with stability and strength.
