How to do it:

  • Place a resistance band around your legs, just above your knees or around your ankles.

  • Stand with feet hip-width apart, knees slightly bent, and shoulders relaxed.

  • Step forward diagonally with your right foot, then follow with your left foot, keeping tension on the band.

  • Continue moving forward for several steps, then reverse direction to return to the start.

  • Keep your core engaged and maintain a slight squat position throughout.
