How to: Resistance Band Pull Through
- Attach a resistance band to a stable anchor at ground level.
- Stand facing away from the anchor, grasping the band between your legs with both hands.
- With a slight bend in your knees, hinge at your hips and lower your torso, keeping your back straight.
- Drive through your hips, extending back to standing position while keeping the band taut.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
