- Sturdy chair

Positioning

1. Sit on a sturdy chair with your back straight and feet flat on the ground.

3. Attach the other end of the resistance band to a sturdy anchor, such as a wall or heavy piece of furniture behind you.

Movement

1. While keeping your back straight, slowly extend one leg straight out in front of you, allowing the resistance band to stretch.
2. Pause for a moment once your leg is fully extended.
3. Gradually bend your knee to return your foot back towards the floor.
4. Repeat this movement for the desired number of repetitions, then switch to the other leg.
5. Focus on controlled movement throughout the exercise, ensuring you're not using momentum to lift your leg.
