Resistance Band Lateral Walk

Set-up

• Place a mini band around your legs, just above your knees or around your ankles.
• Stand with your feet hip-width apart and bend your knees into a quarter squat.

How to do it

1. Step one foot out to the side, keeping tension on the band.
2. Bring the other foot in, but not all the way, so the band stays tight.
3. Take the prescribed number of steps, then walk back the other way.

Coaching cues

• Stay low with your chest up.
• Toes point forward throughout.

Common mistakes

• Letting the knees cave inwards.
• Standing up tall so the hips do less.
