The Band Split Squat strengthens thighs, glutes, and hips. It enhances stability by using a resistance band and is suitable for basic training and injury rehabilitation.
Stand up straight with a resistance band secure under your feet, and wide enough to maintain tension.

Hold the other end of the band with both hands in front of your chest.

Lower your body by bending the knee of the stance leg until your front thigh is parallel to the floor.
