CHEST PRESS & HEEL KICKS

-

Pushing the band with control strengthen­s your chest, while stepping with your legs builds agility. Stand with your feet under your hips, with a slight bend in your knees. Wrap the band around your upper back and under your shoulders, and place your hands in the loops (or grasp the band) near your armpits (A). Roll your shoulders back and down and engage your core. Keeping your elbows tucked into your sides, reach forward with both arms as you kick your right leg forward and tap your heel on the floor (B). Bring your arms and right leg back to the starting position (A). Repeat with your other leg, reaching your arms forward as you kick your left leg out and tap your heel. Continue, alternatin­g legs.
