Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward at your hips, keeping your back straight until it's almost parallel to the floor.
Pull the band upwards towards your chest, keeping your elbows close to your body and squeezing your shoulder blades together.
Pause for a moment at the top of the movement, then slowly lower your hands back to the starting position.
Repeat this movement for your desired number of repetitions, ensuring to maintain proper form throughout.
Pro Tip
**Grip and Position**: Hold the resistance band with your palms facing each other, and make sure the band is securely under your feet. The band should be taut, but not stretched, when you are in the starting position. A common mistake is not positioning the band properly, which can lead to a lack of resistance or, worse, the band slipping and causing injury. **Controlled Movement**: Avoid jerking or using momentum to pull the band. Instead, use a slow, controlled movement to pull the band up towards your waist, squeezing your shoulder blades together. Then, slowly lower the band back down.
