In 1999 (and on a few other occasions) I published and claimed copyright on this exercise description (bolding added now):
Hip/thigh extensions
Lay on your back on the ground, arms outstretched at 90 degrees from the body. Bend one knee so the foot is flat on the floor as it would be in a sit-up. Keeping the other leg straight and in line with the trunk at all times, drive down with the bent knee foot, causing the body to lift. The top of the movement is when the straight leg is in line with the thigh of the bent knee, which is about a 45-degree position. Make sure the body is straight at this point.
Hip/thigh extensions
And I said to myself: “That looks familiar!” So I cross-referenced it and I said to myself: “Wow! No wonder that looked familiar!”
I noted that the use of this description was in the absence of credits or references to the origin or permission to use from the original author (myself), and that the 'author' claimed copyright....

I was conducting research and I came upon the following exercise in a publication copyright claimed by another 'author' at a subsequent date (bolding added):
