EXERCISE USE

Band alternative to the single leg press pin-loaded machine, especially when recovering from a lumbar disc injury or when you dont have access to a gym with equipment. Use a 41" powerband with at least 1" width for resistance.

INSTRUCTIONS Loop the band around a high fixed object like a bar. Hold onto either the same bar or a fixed structure. Put the front foot into the band under the arch of your foot. Extend the hip and knee together to stretch band until your leg is straight, really focusing on maximally squeezing the glute muscles, and keeping the spine in neutral. Slowly return to the start position and repeat.
SPECIAL NOTES Do not allow the spine to arch when you extend the leg, keep it in neutral.
