Band Split Squat
The split squat against a band looped under the front foot and held at the shoulders; the pull peaks as you stand.
How to do it
Setup
Split stance, the band under the front foot, both ends held at the shoulders.
Steps
- Lower the back knee toward the floor, torso tall.
- Keep the hands fixed at the shoulders.
- Stand against the band without stepping.
Common mistakes
Hands dropping with the squat: fix them at the shoulders. Band creeping to the toes: keep it under the middle of the foot. Rushing the lockout: the band pulls hardest there.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
