Resisted hip and knee extension in standing

Resisted hip and knee extension in standing

Stand up straight with a resistance band attached to a secure object in front of you around head height.
Loop the other end of the band around the foot on your leg to be exercised.
Ensure there is some tension in the band.
Starting with your foot on the floor, bend your hip and knee to bring your knee up in front of you.
Ensure your hip and knee travel directly forwards in alignment.
Allow the band to help you raise your leg.
Tensing your abdominal, buttock, and thigh muscles, press your heel back down towards the floor against the resistance of the band.
Repeat this movement.
