Steps

  1. 1 Stand upright with a resistance band looped around your working ankle and anchored to the base of a power rack.
  2. 2 Hold onto the power rack with your opposite hand for support, and abduct your working leg away from your body to create tension in the band.
  3. 3 Keeping your core engaged, pull your working leg across your body and slightly past the midline, squeezing your inner thigh.
  4. 4 Slowly and with control, return your working leg to the abducted starting position, resisting the pull of the band.
  5. 5 Complete all repetitions on one side before switching to the other leg.
