Hip Lift with Band

Hip Lift with Band demonstration

How to Perform

1. 1After choosing a suitable band, lay down in the middle of the rack, after securing the band on either side of you. If your rack doesn't have pegs, the band can be secured using heavy dumbbells or similar objects, just ensure they won't move.
2. 2Adjust your position so that the band is directly over your hips. Bend your knees and place your feet flat on the floor. Your hands can be on the floor or holding the band in position.
3. 3Keeping your shoulders on the ground, drive through your heels to raise your hips, pushing into the band as high as you can.
4. 4Pause at the top of the motion, and return to the starting position.
