Resistance-Band Lying Leg Press

Resistance Band Lying Leg Press

Positioning:
1. Lie down on your back on a flat surface, such as a mat or the floor.
2. Place the resistance band around the soles of your feet. Ensure it is securely positioned so it does not slip off during the exercise.
3. Grab the ends of the resistance band with both hands, positioning your arms to your sides.
4. Bend your knees, bringing your feet closer to your body, so your lower legs are perpendicular to the ground.

Movement:
1. Begin by pressing your feet away from your body, extending your legs straight out while keeping a slight bend in your knees at the end of the movement to avoid locking.
2. As you extend your legs, engage your core to maintain stability and control.
3. Slowly return to the starting position, bending your knees and bringing your feet back towards your body.
4. Repeat this movement for the desired number of repetitions, making sure to maintain a steady pace and control throughout the exercise.

Tips:
- Keep your back flat against the ground to avoid arching your lower back.
- Focus on using your thigh muscles to press against the resistance of the band.
- Adjust the tension of the resistance band as needed to suit your strength level.
