We love resistance bands because they travel so well! You can get a full body workout in anywhere with minimal equipment. This exercise works your legs and core.  

 

Resistance Band Squat

Step 1: Start standing up straight with your feet shoulder width apart. Place the resistance band under your feet.

Step 2: While gripping the handles your hands should be at shoulder height with your palms facing forward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3: Keeping your back straight and your core flexed, bend both knees to a 90° angle.

Step 4: Start the downward movement by pushing your hips backwards, like you’re going to sit in a chair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 5: From the 90° angle, push through your heels to bring yourself to the starting position.
