How to do it
- Put the band around both ankles. To stop it slipping, twist it once into a figure 8 and hook one loop over the shoe of the foot that will stay down.
- Lie on your stomach with your legs straight and your hands on the floor in front of you.
- Keep the hooked foot on the floor. Bend the other knee and pull that heel toward your bottom.
- Lower slowly until the leg is straight. Finish all reps, then switch legs.
TipKeep your hips pressed into the floor the whole time.
AvoidLifting your hips, or swinging the leg fast.
