Main muscles working (thicker lines)
Anchor a long band low on a post, face away from it holding the band with both hands between your legs, and walk forward until it is taut.
Stand with feet a little wider than hip-width, knees soft.
Push your hips back and let the band draw your hands back between your legs.
Keep your back flat and arms long as you hinge.
Drive your hips forward to stand tall, squeezing your glutes at the top.
Breathing: Inhale as you hinge back, exhale as you drive forward.
