Resistance Band Kneeling Back Kick

The kneeling kick with a loop band on the thighs, driven up until the knee almost straightens.

How to do it

Setup

Kneeling on all fours, back flat, a loop band hugging the lower thighs.

Steps

Kick the leg up and back, letting the knee open.
Stop before the lower back arches.
Return to the start without resting the knee.

Common mistakes

Chasing height with the lower back: stop while the spine is still. Band rolling up or down: set it before the set. Kicking on momentum: every rep from a stop.

Breathing

Exhale on the kick, inhale lowering.
