Resistance Band Standing Balance Glute Kickback

The ankle-band kickback with nothing to hold: balancing on one leg, hands on the hips, the other leg kicks back.

How to do it

Setup

Standing tall, hands on the hips, a loop band around both ankles.

Steps

Shift onto one leg, knee soft.
Sweep the free leg back against the band.
Bring it in without touching down; finish the side.

Common mistakes

Hips shifting sideways to balance: stack them over the standing foot. Leaning forward to lift higher: stay tall. Tapping the foot down between reps: keep it light off the floor.

Breathing

Exhale on the kick, inhale returning.
