ACL Injury Maintenance Exercise: Copenhagen Plank
Lie sideways on your elbow with your top leg supported on a bench and bottom leg hanging below. Lift your hips into a side plank and hold, engaging your inner thighs (adductors) and squeezing your belly and glutes. Press your hips forward so you are in one straight line. Shoulders should remain stacked.
