This exercise strengthens the psoas muscle that lifts up the hip. The opposite side (standing leg) hip muscles and core muscles will also be working hard to maintain your balance and support on one leg.
Standing with a band over the feet, lift one leg up bringing your knee to hip level. Slowly lower then repeat with the other leg.
Try not to arch or round the back. If needed, start with your hands on a wall in front of you to assist with balance.
