How to do it:

•Have your client place a resistance band around his lower thighs, just above the knees. Instruct him to perform a hip hinge (Figure 12.10A).

•Cue him to make a double chin, bear down, and then take a small step to the right, landing with a flat foot. The left knee should remain directly over the left foot as he steps to the right. (Figure 12.10B).

•Next, instruct him to take a very small step to the right with the left leg, thus returning his stance width to the starting position (Figure 12.10A). The feet should not be narrower than shoulder width.

•Instruct him to take 3 steps to the right, followed immediately by 3 steps to the left. Without resting, have him take 2 steps to the right and 2 to the left. He’ll finish with one step in each direction. Have the client squeeze a ball between his elbows during the exercise if it improves his technique.

•Perform 3 sets of the 3-2-1 rep sequence, with 30 seconds of rest between each set.

•The goal is to work up to a 5-4-3-2-1 rep sequence for all 3 sets with a band you feel is appropriate for the client.
