Movement instructions

1
Place a band around both ankles and another around both knees. There should be enough tension that they are tight when your feet are shoulder width apart.
2
To begin, take short steps forward alternating your left and right foot.
3
After several steps, do just the opposite and walk backward to where you started.

Technique guidance

Set a firm trunk position before lifting, then use short, regular breaths while moving. Do not hold your breath for the entire carry.

Clear the route before lifting and keep other people away from the implement path.
Choose a load you can pick up, carry, turn, and set down under control.
Inspect the band and anchor before use, keep the recoil path clear, and replace damaged equipment.

General guidance matched from movement type and equipment; it is not individualized coaching or medical advice.
