How to Perform

  1. 1

    Secure a resistance band to a sturdy anchor point in front of you and loop it around your chest/shoulders for support.

  2. 2

    Kneel on a padded surface with your feet secured under a stable object or held by a partner.

  3. 3

    Engage your core and glutes, keeping your body straight from head to knees.

  4. 4

    Slowly lower your torso towards the ground by extending at the knees, resisting the movement with your hamstrings.

  5. 5

    Use the band to assist you in controlling the descent as much as possible.

  6. 6

    When you can no longer control the descent, gently catch yourself with your hands.

  7. 7

    Use your hands to push back to the starting position.
