GLUTES
Loop Band Side Step
The loop band side step is a lateral movement that fires up the glutes, hips, and outer thighs. Keeping tension on the band as you step side to side strengthens the hip abductors and builds stability. It's a favorite for warm-ups and for improving lateral strength and balance.
How to do it
- 1
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, toes turned slightly out.
- 2
Loop the band under the middle of both feet and twist it once to form an X, then grip the ends at shoulder width.
- 3
Bend your knees slightly, push your hips back a touch, and keep your chest facing forward.
- 4
Brace your core and step one foot out to the side, landing well past shoulder-width.
- 5
Bring the trailing foot in the same direction while keeping tension on the band.
- 6
Keep stepping in that direction until the set ends, then work back the other way.
