Resistance Band Bent Leg Side Kick (Kneeling)
The fire hydrant against a loop band: on all fours, the bent knee lifts out to the side and the band pulls it back in.
How to do it
Setup
Hands and knees on a mat, a loop band just above the knees.
Steps
- Open the knee sideways against the band.
- Stop with the thigh about level.
- Lower against the pull of the band.
Common mistakes
Tipping the torso away from the lift: the shoulders stay square. Band slipping down the legs: keep it above the knees. Dropping the knee fast: slow down against the band.
Breathing
Exhale lifting, inhale lowering.
