  2. Everything else being equal, the farther down the leg the band or loop is positioned, the greater the resistance to then movement.
  3. With the band positioned according to your ability, bend slightly at the hips and knees. From this position, take reaching steps to the side.
  4. Repeat moving first to one side and then the other.
