Description

Attach an elastic band in front of you, placing it in the hollow of your knee (use a towel for added comfort). Position a step just behind you. Slightly bend the knee equipped with the elastic band and place the tip of your foot on the step. Then, extend the knee with the elastic band by pushing backward while stepping onto the step, resisting the force of the elastic band. Simultaneously, bring the other knee to a 90-degree angle in front of you, maintaining this posture for the recommended duration. Then, rest the free leg in front of the step. Bend the knee with the elastic band again while keeping the tip of your foot on the step.
