Muscles

Technique

  1. Place a Short resistance band around your thighs, just above the knees.
  2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out, maintaining tension in the band.
  3. Keeping your chest up and core engaged, lower yourself into a Deep squat position by bending your knees and hips.
  4. Push through your heels to return to the starting position, keeping tension on the band throughout.

Form tips

  1. Maintain a neutral spine and engage your core throughout the exercise.
  2. Ensure your knees track in line with your toes as you squat down.
  3. Keep constant tension on the resistance band by pushing your knees out against it throughout the movement; don't let your knees collapse inward.
