Exercise Description

Standing hip flexion with bands strengthens your hip flexors and improves leg lift power. Great for runners, athletes, and fixing tight hips from sitting all day.

How To

1. Anchor resistance band to sturdy object at ankle height and loop around your right ankle 2. Step back until band has light tension, hold wall or chair for balance 3. Keep standing leg straight and core tight throughout the standing hip flexion with bands movement 4. Lift your banded leg forward and up toward your chest in controlled motion 5. Lower leg back to start position slowly and repeat, then switch to perform standing hip flexion with bands on left leg

Form Tips

• Keep your core engaged during standing hip flexion with bands to prevent back arch • Move slowly and controlled - don't let the band snap your leg back • Stand tall with shoulders back, don't lean forward or backward • Focus on lifting your knee high rather than swinging your leg during standing hip flexion with bands

Common Mistakes

• Using too much band tension and losing control of the standing hip flexion with bands movement • Leaning back or arching spine instead of keeping upright posture • Moving too fast and letting momentum take over during standing hip flexion with bands reps
