Description:	Set up for the cable hip abduction by attaching an ankle strap (if one is not available, a single handle may suffice) to the low pulley of a cable pulley machine and set your desired weight on the stack. Attach the ankle strap to your left ankle and stand up straight with your feet close together with your right foot closest to the machine. You can use your right arm to hold onto the machine for stability. You are now in the staring position. Begin the movement by lifting your left leg straight out to your side as high as comfortably possible. This will lift the weight from the stack. Pause for a moment and then slowly lower your leg back to the starting position. Repeat for the desired amount of reps. Turn around, attach the the strap to your right ankle and then repeat with your right leg.
