Movement instructions

1
Using a 41 inch band, stand on one end, spreading your feet a small amount. Bend at the hips to loop the end of the band behind your neck. This will be your starting position.
2
Keeping your legs straight, extend through the hips to come to a near vertical position.
3
Ensure that you do not round your back as you go down back to the starting position.

Technique guidance

Inhale and set your trunk before the lowering phase, then exhale as you extend the hips. Reset your breath between controlled repetitions.

Use a stable setup and a load or resistance you can control through a comfortable range.
Stop if you feel sharp pain, dizziness, or feel unwell.
Inspect the band and anchor before use, keep the recoil path clear, and replace damaged equipment.
