How to do it

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and place the band around your ankles.
  2. Hold the band with both hands in front of your thighs, palms facing your body.
  3. Keeping your back straight and your core engaged, hinge at the hips and slowly lower your upper body towards the ground.
  4. As you lower, push your hips back and allow your knees to bend slightly.
  5. Lower the band towards the ground, feeling a stretch in your hamstrings.
  6. Pause for a moment at the bottom, then engage your glutes and hamstrings to lift your upper body back up to the starting position.
  7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
