Resistance Band Side Lunge

The side lunge with a loop band just above the knees; the band pulls the knees in, so the outer hip works to keep them tracking over the feet.

How to do it

Setup

A loop band above the knees, feet hip-width, hands clasped at the chest.

Steps

  1. Step sideways against the band and bend that knee.
  2. Keep both knees pushed out over the toes.
  3. Push back to the start without letting the band snap the legs together.

Common mistakes

Knees collapsing toward the band's pull: press them out. Band rolling down the legs: set it flat above the knees. Short steps to spare the band: step wide enough to sit into the hip.

Breathing

Inhale into the lunge, exhale pushing back.
