Sets: 2-3

Reps: 12 (6 each side)

• Lie on your back with your knees and hips at 90/90.

• Pull the anchored resistance band down and extend out in front. Depress your ribs down with the band pull.

• Inhale and allow the ribs to gently expand.

• Exhale as you draw in your core and extend your leg straight out. Only go as low as you can control without letting the low back arch off the mat.

• Inhale once back to 90/90.

• Exhale and switch sides.

Modifications:

• Extending the leg higher is easier vs lowering towards the floor is more difficult.

• Bend the leg if you need to to decrease the lever arm.
