How to do it
- Place a band around both ankles and another around both knees. There should be enough tension that they are tight when your feet are shoulder width apart.
- To begin, take short steps forward alternating your left and right foot.
- After several steps, do just the opposite and walk backward to where you started.
Form tips
- Start light and own the movement before adding weight.
- Control the lowering phase — don't drop into it.
- Keep breathing; exhale on the hardest part.
- Stop if you feel sharp pain (different from muscle burn).
