Band Lateral Walk

How to do it

1. Loop a resistance band around both legs just above the ankles and stand with your feet about hip width apart.
2. Bend your knees and hips into a partial squat, setting an athletic stance with your chest up and your weight in your midfoot.
3. Brace your core, then drive one foot out to the side by pushing through your glute and hip so the band stretches under tension.
4. Bring the trailing foot in only part way to keep constant tension on the band, squeezing the glute of the working leg as you plant each step.
5. Exhale as you step out and inhale as you recover, keeping a slow controlled tempo across the set number of steps in each direction.
6. Keep your torso upright and your knees pushed out over your toes, avoiding letting the knees cave inward as you step.
