Lateral Band Walk
Band around the knees or ankles, half-squat position: step sideways without letting the knees fall in.
How to do it
Setup
Band around the knees or ankles, half-squat, feet hip-width.
Steps
- Step sideways keeping tension in the band.
- The trailing foot follows without touching the lead one.
- Walk one way, then back; stay low throughout.
Common mistakes
Standing up between steps: the half-squat holds. Feet snapping together: tension dies; keep the gap. Knees caving inward: the band wants it; push out.
Breathing
Steady with the steps.
