Description

Wrap a heavy elastic band around a bar or pole at knee height and slide the loop just behind the knee to be worked. Step back so that the band exerts strong traction on the leg. The foot should be flat on the floor and the pressure should be even across the entire foot surface. Lift the other leg. The exercise starts by moving the hips back into a semi-squat position, keeping the torso straight. The tibia should be vertical as the hips move back. Hold the position for the indicated time.
