Start with a Mini-Band around your legs. The lower the band is on your leg, the more difficult the exercise will be. Face to the side, with knees and toes in alignment, and knees slightly bent. Feet should be about hip-width apart. Step out to the side with one leg, keeping your knees and toes forward. Follow with your other leg taking a small step so tension remains on the band. Typically these are shorter, hip width steps so tension remains on the band. Focus on controlling the movement, especially your trail leg; do not let the band snap your feet together. Continue stepping to one side, then retrace your steps with the other leg leading. This is a good time to see if you can maintain a strong core. If you try and arch your back or lean a lot to find strength, these would be compensation movements we don't want you to do.
