Deadlift - Pulling Band
Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: Place a challenging resistance band on the ground. Stand on the middle of the band.. Grab the band with both hands, hinge forward at the hips while only slightly bending the knees, keep your back flat, and push your hips out. At the end of your hip hinge, push into the ground with your feet and pull the bands up until you are upright again.
- FEEL: You should feel your low back, glutes, and hamstring muscles working. You will also feel you trap and arm muscles working as you hold onto the band.
