How to do it

Keep your sit bones evenly pressed into the chair for the whole set.

  1. 1

    Sit on a chair with your feet flat on the floor, knees bent at 90 degrees.

  2. 2

    Loop the band around your lower thighs, just above your knees.

  3. 3

    Press one knee inward against the band's resistance while keeping the other leg stationary.

  4. 4

    Slowly return to the starting position.

  5. 5

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching legs.

Expert tip

Control the movement both when rotating inward and when returning to the starting position to maintain tension on the muscles throughout the exercise.
