How to do it

  1. 01

    Stand next to a chair, which you may hold onto as a support. Stand on one leg. This will be your starting position.

  2. 02

    Keeping your leg straight, raise it as far out to the side as possible, and swing it back down, allowing it to cross the opposite leg.

  3. 03

    Repeat this swinging motion 5-10 times, increasing the range of motion as you do so.

In the app

Side Leg Raises needs no kit, so it appears whenever the day's window has room for it. Its minutes come from Rule 2 (Sessions are built to fit, never guaranteed, graded product): the window sets how long it runs, never the other way round.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

Same pattern, with kit

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
