Toe Tap - 3-Way, Band

Is this for yourself or for a patient?

  • HOW: Place a band around your knees above your knee cap. Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward at the hips performing a small squat. From this position, shift your weight to one side. With the other leg, reach out and tap your toe in a diagonal direction in front of you, then back, then straight out to the side, then back, and in a backward diagonal motion. Return back to the starting position in between each rep. 
  • FEEL: You should feel your hip muscles working. 
  • COMPENSATION: Maintain a squat position. Don’t shift your weight to the leg tapping in each direction.
